Time before meridian flip is off by 1 hour (1 HR more of the actual mf time)

jirestre

Hello,
I live in Mexico City and when doing an autorun session the time reported before mf is 1 hour more, so I have to do the manual flip otherwise run the risk of hitting the tripod. Beginning this year we are no longer observing dst, so I don’t know if this issue is related to that.
I am using the iOS version on an iPad. My time in the tablet and the app are fine, the mount is an AM5.
I have never had issues with the mf before.

Hello, if you are using AM5+ASIAIR, you don’t need to consider the DST problem, ASIAIR will automatically handle the DST setting of AM5.
Are you referring to [Meridian: xxh xxm xxs] at the bottom of Autorun Mode? This time will change with the current position of the Mount.

If you are sure that the displayed time is one hour away from the correct result, it is recommended that you check whether the App-Mount-Location Info is consistent with your current geographic coordinates. Please make sure it is correct and click [sync to mount]
