HI,

I have some troubles with the PA. The Kstars version is the last 2.9.8. My devices are mount Celestron Nextar (Celestron AVX) and a Canon 1000D.
Once the PA launched, the first capture is made and the resolution gives a curious result. Instead the telescope coordinate are RA: 12H00:00 DEC: 0H00:00, the calculated result is RA:23H12:48 DEC:89°39:57. The second process capture image begins and I obtain the message: " Requested altitude is below the horizon. Are you sure you want to proceed ?"

Can you give me some help please ?

The location is correct, Paris France as for the mount Celestron AVX. I agree rhat it seems to be the node but whete is the clue ?
I restart my Nexstar with default parameter and choose Paris-France-Europe for the location.
The PA ran on july.

I controled that my mount runs as usual without Kstar. I notice that the dirver used for the Celestron AVX is indi_celestron_gps. Correct ?

I have the same issue with Skychart with indi and the same driver.
The mount runs well alone.

So It should be an issue with the driver indi_celestron_gps.
