Paramount ME questions

Last night I ran the PME using direct drive and an ST402ME on a guide scope.

I just wanted it working and intend to put the St402 in the MMOAG which is fitted but I have had trouble getting it to focus on previous occassions trying the MMOAG so one battle at a time.

When I went to callibrate the autoguider I had callibration times set to 30 seconds for each axis. Yet it did an exposure and a really short move
(less than 1 second). The first time it said callibration successful.

Later on I wanted to redo callibration in case it was off and get guide error numbers lower. It did the same thing but this time an error message of too short callibration time and to increase it. Changing the callibration time has no effect.

Is this a problem with Direct drive?

Greg.
