QHY-5/PHD question in ref to Temma 2 Jr

Hi all

Just a quick question to those who have experience with a Temma 2 Jr equipped mount and have used PHD guiding software driven by a QHY-5.

I have my EM-10 guide port connected to the ST-4 port on the camera with the appropriate serial cable. The camera talks just fine to the laptop via USB as per normal. The Temma controller is set to southern hemisphere on initialisation.

Being new to the Temma, I connected the camera in PHD and attempted to start a calibration run. Nothing moved. On my G-11 all I needed to do was up the guide rate by hitting the 2x button - simple. Slewing is fine, the mount is working just fine, but calibration results in dead crosshairs. The position indicators don't increment either.

May I ask what the procedure is with the Temma?

Thanks in advance
