Not sure about the EQ6 but it looks like guiding rates on the G11. So I assume x1 is sidereal time, x0.5 would mean that pulses would accelerate the mount up to x1.5 sidereal or slow it down to x0.5 sidereal, and in the same fashion x0.25 would accelerate the mount to x1.25 sidereal or slow it down to x0.75 sidereal. Makes sense?
