N/S/E/W: These controls move the telescope physically. The Physical Hand Control controls don’t work while the telescope is connected and these are the replacements. Also, if you checked the Show Hand Control box, a small separate window with the same NSEW controls will appear and this can also be used to move the telescope. On the virtual hand control, you can also change the speed of the movement, but be sure not to exceed the maximum slew speed of the telescope, which for a Celestron 6SE is 4*/sec.
