Fair enough, however, I tried your synscan driver instead and unless I am mistaken (there is no motor status available), tracking still ran after I played with the handset: same use case, different behaviour (yours makes more sense, if you ask me). I would be quite happy going for the synscan driver except that when I switched tracking off in ekos, it would not switch back on unless I slewed to another target (or the same, I imagine). No indication whatsoever that it even tried to switch tracking on (and failed). I guess I just traded one issue for another ;-)

Cheers,

This error actually happens to me sometimes when I manually move the mount in Ekos, it just stops tracking in RA, no handset attached or used, so it is a bug, and not just when handset is used, the last time I had to completly reset and start over, but if you click “sync” after making any manual movments it does not seem to happen...... :(
