The East/West button inverts the curve. If PEC makes things worse, try it the other way. Hey, you have a 50/50 chance of getting it right.
I know binning is okay with Tpoint mapping, won't affect the results, but I'm not sure about the effect of binning in PEC training. I'd be leery to bin there. When you record the data, you use a smallish 64x64 or so tracking box anyway, so you should not really need to bin there, I'd think.
Note that unless Ray has fixed PEMPro very recently, it can neither compute a correct curve for nor can it program a Paramount MX mount. You have to use CCDsoft and the built-in PEC curve computation tab in TheSkyX->Telescope->Tools->Bisque TCS->Periodic Error Correction->Compute PEC Curve.

Did all of that.
No binning, Both run as Admin. CCD Tracking log is showing the worm phase no problem. When I upload to mount using Sky X TCS the mount tracking stays the same or gets worse. (Yes I do clear it each time as well). I have tried it with Data on east box ticked and not, No difference. Actualy with it ticked PE stays about the same. As in same magnitude, but PE cruve looks different, so PEC is making corrections just not sure its making the right ones. Without it ticked it gets worse.
