    That setting is in ACP Preferences, Guiding tab. Also make sure you have the Adaptive Optics checked.

    ACP will not find the guide star for you, you need to use a field of view indicator or some way to know how far yu have to "fudge" the pointing of your target so you get a guide star. It's probably going to be tough if you don't have a rotator unless you have a wide field of view.
