Anyone use the LPI as an autoguider?

Just wondering if anyone else uses the LPI as an autoguider with their LX200? I have finally got it to take shots of faint stars at about 2 second intervals, but have found that I am still getting star trails. The connection is verified and everyting seems to be working, but how do I know if it is sending the right information to the scope. The co-ordinates box shows the info in x and y yet i still have this problem. How do I get it to do its job properly, I have read the manual several times, am missing something. I want to be able to use it so I don't have to hand guide all the time.

Paul
