Hey... wondering if anyone can help me... I have an EQ6 Pro and have installed ASCOM + EQASCOM and can connect and slew the mount manually from the EQASCOM panel.... all seems good with that... (note: I'm going via the SynScan handcontroller in PC Direct mode)

However, I can't get the mount to move in Stellarium, despite configuring the telescope control plugin and successfully making a connection... I haven't installed the StellariumScope addon as from what I can see, it is no longer required with newer versions of Stellarium as it now natively supports SkyWatcher/SynScan v3.0 or greater (my controller is latest firmware, 3.35)

Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong or what to try next? Thanks!

Cameron,

I'm runnning my NEQ6 with Stellarium 0.11.2, Stellarium Scope using PC Direct on Synscan 3.27 with no issues.
Haven't upgraded the software after reading every elses issues.
