PHD2 and TheSkyX

Guiding with TSX has never been very accurate (for me) and I want to try the above combination to drive my MX mount. Unfortunately I can't select 'Pulse Guiding' in PHD2 as it is greyed out. I have the latest ASCOM, 6 SP3, TSX, build 7477 and am up to date with .net 4.5.1 . Hopefully someone may have an idea of what I might have missed.

Thanks
Charles

Did you enable it inside the driver properties for the "TheSky Controlled Telescope" ASCOM driver?

That is the problem, the option for 'enable pulse guiding' is greyed out and not selectable. I just left the driver at the defaults
HOWEVER , your image also has 'enable tracking offsets' ticked (whatever that is) and when I ticked mine, the pulse guide option became available!! Thanks, Frolinmod, I'll try again.
