Hi Glen
By the sounds of it I should not bother with ASCOM. I might call Andrews or Bintel where I got the equipment for setup advice. From all the things I've tried I should have at least got a response from the mount in manual mode. I've used both methods recommended by ZWO for the ASI120MC. Even though technically the ST4 and RJ12 (6P6C) should be the same, I still suspect this is the issue.
I'm going to give up on the auto guiding for a couple of months, despite the outlay on the guide scope, and just try to get the best images I can unguided.
Thanks for all your suggestions people and I'm sure this will be a face palm moment when I resolve it.
