Paramount MYT software limit issue

Hi all,
I recently took a major step in my astrophotography journey and upgraded to a Paramount MYT for my William Optics 132mm. With help I managed to get it to work beautifully last Saturday night but like some newbies I crashed it into the pier.

I had tried to set the slew limits via TCS but it appears to work backward. When the scope is on the east side of the pier and i insert the limit using the 'set this position' tab I can't then slew over the mount, only toward and therefore under the mount. I thought it might be a Southern Hemisphere issue and swapped sides but no luck there either.

I googled and some people in 2012 had the same issue with the MX but Bisque said it's no longer an issue. I've posted there too and am waiting but thought perhaps someone here may have had similar Paramount issues and advice.

PS I also had already set the slew limits via the horizon and altitude limits in the SkyX Pro

Regards
Geoff
