Hi William. I was pleased to read your helpful comments. Thanks.
One of my follow up remarks on progress was also lost. The dome connected fine with the Pulsar ASCOM Driver and i could use the buttons to move the dome, but EQMOD would not connect to NINA, although it was connected with SkyMapPro and SharpCap. Thus the telescope and Dome were not talking.
Im pleased to report a solution:
At a recent meeting of my local AS: Abingdon, a software engineer suggested it was likely down to “permissions”. Both SharpCap and SkyMapPro were run as Administrator (on my system), NINA was not. Ive now corrected this and hey-presto! the dome can now follow the telescope.
Im still in ASCOM 6 but NINA warns.
