use of sextant?

Thanks! but I think I didn't make the question right.
I mean.. how to use the sextant OF SH5 (or sh3 that I believe it is the same).
I know (I think is that way) I have to align the 0º mark (with the horizont) but when I want to look the polar star maybe is above the camera view.. so have to look up.. and the SH5 sextant is not fixed with camera position. I mean.... the numbers not change with rotation of camera up.... so it is a bit difficult.. or I miss something.

I would like to see a video or good tutorial about how determine the position with sextant and chronometer inside SH5.

thanks!
