Is it an equatorial mount or an alt/az mount?
You can set it up either way (if I remember correctly)...since I can't find Polaris due to trees, I haven't tried to set up the motor tracking function [I've had this 'scope for years (Meade EX-125)].

It's great for the moon, and I just got my sun filter yesterday, but it has been too cloudy to try it out. It has a neat computer program with a bunch of "pre-loaded" sights that the motor will take you to, but again, I've not been able to make use of it because I can't zero in on Polaris. Hopefully one of these apps (SKeye) will help.
