The 2 stars used should not cause an issue in pointing of that degree nor cause it to be off on one of those stars (when returned to it). The quality of the alignment - whether the stars were the right stars (i.e. you were on the ones you claimed) could make a difference.?
Generally with that much difference I'd suggest you are seeing slippage in one of the encoders. Generally the ALT is the culprit. Make sure the ALT encoder arm is not pushing up or down on the encoder shaft or twisting it.?

Hello Frank, what 2 stars are you using for your 2 star alignment?

I have the jumpers switched and the nexus dsc pro is now communicating. I did a two star alignment and it pointed good to the first five targets and then on the sixth target it was off by about 5 degrees this is the order of the targets M51-m81-m82-albireo-m81 and then when i whent back to albireo it was off about 5 degrees. I have double checked all the settings. Let me know what you think.
Thanks
