Based on the mount working properly with the handbox connected, you can be 99.9% sure the mount itself is OK, as if it didnt respond properly, the handbox would give a warning.
As such, its a really perplexing error, and may be related to the USB settings in the lappie itself, ie flow control settings etc.
The syntas dont care re any of this, as they only use Rx, Tx, ground, but if the lappie is configured to use flow control it may be affecting it.
Thats beyond my abilities, as i dont have W10, or know how it works there.

Thanks a lot for your help AndrewJ! I just got an old lappy working again... I'm gonna give it a crack later today.
So frustrating to get stuck on this kind of problem. Last time was shoestring st4 guiding cable that was not entirely compatible with my zwo. Then backlash nightmare and now eqmod
Now I see why people prefer to buy brand new stuff.
