Hi
Which code were you referring to? Btw I use picaxe not arduino.

I have tested a limited lx200 translation routine with the picaxe as well as pulse guiding, so the picaxe emulates an lx200 and sends responses back to the Ascom driver also changes the stepper speed for guide corrections.

Other project I had was a handheld dsc, haven't completed it though. The dec axis was a bit complicated with the negative values, but still workable.
Final bit will be integrating the two so it can use the encoder feedback to control the steppers for goto commands from any software using Ascom.
