I set the scope up on the steel tripod it came with which has a tilt plate. The other thing I noticed on their web site and reading the readme file in Updater 6.0 is there was no mention of Windows 8 or 8.1 which is what I use.only previous version of Windows.

The hand controller has the 45E and the newest firmware update for the controller is ver 6.0 which I was trying to reload and also enter comet Lovejoy as it is not in the controller.only about 6 other comets that stay in our galaxy are listed and I love looking at Lovejoy but once it's 's gone! LOL. I asked Meade about this and it's accuracy, especially if I'm in the desert or high in the mountains and they said using the nearest city is accurate to within 200 miles and elevation has no bearing on goto mounts! My time is correct and we are on daylight savings time.all inputed information is correct.

+/- 7.Utah is -7).only the city by entering the city and state names or by using the zip code (I used the zip) and by entering the current time and using daylight saving or not. The controller has no option of lat/long, elevation or time zone (i.e. I believe our opulation is over 20,000 the last I seen. Price is small but is the largest city within a 90 mile radius. Meade made up cables and I guess there is a cross over somwehere inside. There is/was a problem with 5.9.2, well it was OK but Win7 upset it: Here is an odd one - what are yopu using to set the scope up pointing North?Дon't use a compass, the magnetic deviation may be such that it is highly inaccurate.Д«ack to the Updater, which one did you get? If the option is Salt Lake City then that is some 150-180Km away. I would set you own custom location, (Price is not a big place is it ) the Meade options may be a bit too far away to use a 'standard' offering from the supplied ones. Not sure when DST starrts in the US, or if applied to UT (2 US states do not do DST) Actually easy to get several of the things wrong.Д¬heck the Lat (=59 36 N), Long (= -110 49) or (110 49 West), Timezone = -7. Have always found the Meade to be accurate, so I would also suspect data. Latest for the #497 is the 43Eg, issue date 4/13/07. Have you the correct Autostar Updater? Reading the Meade Support that is as clear as mud, the latest is 6.0 and should identify the handset and get the right firmware, question is do I believe that.

Half suspect the use of USB, they were designed for a 9600k serial port, maybe even as high as 19200k. Oddly it makes life immensly easy, you don't have to think about it.

I have 2 Meades and I know that for one of them there never has been an update and you cannot actually updagte the thing anyway. Going to sound odd but have Meade ever made a firmware update?
