problem pier side was created by frouart

Hi there,

Sorry for my english, i'm french and i need help.

When i connect my equipment to ekos, everything seems ok but in eqmod mount modul, i notice that the pier sied switching all the time from east to west even if i'm parked.

I can't make a polar alignement because each time the side pier switch, coordonates are wrong and le mount go back to park (with error message about horizon limits).

I tryed to reset my raspberry with clean install but nothing changed.

Any idea ?

Thank you to take some time.

Material :
Eq6-r, Zwo 120/178/294, sxwheels, eaf asi, raspberry pi4 8g.

Regards,

Nicolas

Salut Nicolas,

Are you using the SynScan driver or EQMod? If you are using the SynAcan driver then I’d advice you to buy (or create) an EQDir cable so you can use the EQMod driver which works much more reliably.
