Kentmd the object is perfectly centered in the FOV when I click the Big Dipper icon lower left to see the framing as before
That is not a real image that is captured by a camera, though. It is simply a model (a sky map) of what you should see if the coordinates are correct.
You coordinates are apparently not correct, so that sky map will not show what your sensor sees in the real sky.
Unfortunately, if you are within 30º from the pole, ASIAIR will not plate solve successfully, otherwise you could just plate solve, sunc, and then do another GOTO to get closer to your target.
However, one thing that you can try is to use the RA of your target, but enter +55º as the declination. I.e., some location in the sky with the same RA as your target, but at a declination that ASIAIR can plate solve.
Do a GOTO to this place in the sky.
Platesolve, Sync, GOTO... Platesolve, Sync, GOTO... Platesolve, Sync, GOTO... until the plate solve shows that you are within a few arc seconds of accuracy.
Now, do a GOTO to your target. ASIAIR should only move the mount's declination motor. And with luck, your target should be within your FOV, so that you can manually center using a slow slew.
If it is something that you need to seriously capture, abandon the ASIAIR and use some other program that can plate solve within 30º of the pole. ASIAIR may not be a serious enough tool for your usage.
