Re: [guide-user] remote control of telescope - Guide 8

Hello Bernd!

Thanks for your answer!


One more question:

- after I clicked on "add alignement star" have I to see some
movement? Because
'I do not know of any change or effect after this command!
Because it is an accuracy of position, is it right that I do not see any
movement?

Bye!
