I’ve installed a Nexdome rotation kit on my 8’ Exploradome. The installation went really well, the stepper has no problems rotating the dome and the software plays nice with SGP. My problem is the sync of the dome slit to the scope, it’s consistently off by roughly 8 degrees on all targets. I’ve remeasured the parameters used in the Ascom hub and even tried adjusting each one to no avail. The home position magnet is set properly and it syncs to home.
How should I go about troubleshooting this problem? Is there one parameter I should be looking at? Any help would be appreciated.

this sounds like the home position is not set to the right Azimuth so the origin for all measurement it off. Would your local magnetic deviation be about 8 degrees by any chance ... and you used a magnetic compas to set the home position ?
