Position doesn´t fit
Hello together,
today I´ve brought my TeenAstro into operation, and evrything is lookinf fine. Only the position isn´t the right one the mount moves to.
The mount drives to wide. Tested with the sun (inside a room, don´t worry). Because here I know were she is. But the mount points below
the horizont. But right now the sun isn´t below the horizont!
I don´t mean the calculated position, that is correct. I´ve tested this with a card program. No, the system points to the wrong position.
Seems to be a few degrees wrong. I think it´s a problem with the gear value.
Setup:
HQ5: 1:144
Belt: 12 teeth to 48teeth thats 1:3
That is a gear value of 432.
Motor: 200 steps/rotation, 32 Microsteps.
But were do I think wrong?
Many thanks.

Belt: 12/48 is 1:4 and not 1:3
