I meant to say for those using ML stepper (re:Hurst) motors. When I 1st used the controller with this combo I got a lot of miss-stepping and motor buzz/chatter.

I had to set the "Period per step" (in ASCOM properties handling tab) from the std 35ms to around 60ms. Once done...all good.

Something to do with the way the Hurst is wound? This didn't happen with the cheaper ebay motor I tried.

Anyway just mentioning this so anyone else seeing this will know what to do.
