Heq5 EQMOD ASCOM setup

[RogerTheDodger]

As it is a cloudy night I've been setting up to try CdC for scope control rather than Stellerium. During the ASCOM setup I noticed that somehow I'd been defaulted to EQ6 microsteps per revolution rather than the Heq5 that I remember selecting some time ago - I think this will explain the not too brilliant tracking I have been experiencing, rather than the polar alignment I was thinking was the problem...

I love EQMOD/ASCOM and CdC!! And not just because its free! It really does work very well.

Now that I've had a good play with CdC I think it is a LOT better than Stellerium for scope driving. I've even got a custom FOV for the cam set up - very useful to see what will/won't fit in.
