It seems that the code supporting the AZEQ5 mount that's described in the above post didn't make it to the current stable release of the Skywatcher drivers (v1.9.0)? I tried the alt-az driver v1.3 with my new AZEQ5 in ALT-AZ configuration and get the error message "Mount type not supported. 6"). Looking at skywatcherAPI.h from the master branch, I see there's no enumerated MountType for AZEQ5. skywatcherAPI.cpp from the master branch doesn't have the IsAZEQMount() code. 

Was this an oversight since the AZEQ6 fixes suggested in this thread are in the master branch?

Thanks!
