I have a small problem with Kstars , I have the telescope connected to Kstars I pick a object in Kstars I then tell the scope to go to to the objects, the the telescope move’s to the spot I have picked but the icon on Kstars stays in the one spot .What have I not connected. I am using a Celestron evaluation 6”.

Is the mount tracking, if not try enabling tracking. In the attached, used KStars to unpark and then move the mount away from the meridian.

The square(s) come from defining fields of view FOV in KStars. I tested and the red telescope position comes from setting KStar > Settings > INDI > Telescope crosshair check box.

Ian,
I don't think I can be much help, not being familiar with Astroberry. As author Is there a way to change the heading of the post to see if someone who recognises the problem sees it? Or does astroberry have a different forum?

Could you try clicking on the sync button in the Celestron telescope control window that watalota showed? That may force the mount to pick up the coordinates that it moved to.
