Guidedog and HEQ5 Pro with Synscan V3.0 Question?

Hi Guys,

I hope some of you can help us.
Danny Boy and I are planning a session next saturday, and I want to make sure that we eliminate most glitches at home before we go out there in the dark.

I have recently acquired a Modded Toucam 840K, and have installed GuideDog on the laptop, the only issue I have is in getting it setup so it talks to the SkyWatcher HEQ5 Pro mount. I am aware of the ASCOM drivers and have installed the latest version.

Now for my question? When choosing the telecope from the menu, the SW HEQ5 is no where to be seen. Does anyone know what I need to choose from "ASCOM Telescope chooser"? Is there a separate ASCOM driver available for the HEQ5 Pro mount?

Am I choosing the OTA from this menu or the mount system?
Any help is appreciated, and I promise to post our first results, weather permitting.

Cheers Guys and Clear Skies!
