that the lnt module over rides the telescope.
Not quite right, the LNT isnt the culprit here.
Later model LX90s have motor cards fitted with newer firmware.
These return an ID number that the Handbox firmware doesn't know about.
This effectively disables the ability for the LX90 to use an APM909 module
and also affects the way the second part of a goto slew occurs.
I "suspect" that is the problem for the goto problem, but not parking.
The parking sounds more like a corrupt variable
Wont take Don and Michael long to see whats what.
