Hi Ray, I have checked. APCC is not the one you mentioned. I have 1.8.3.1. All other are up to date. Where I can download the APCC version? Konstantin

If the small move is made as a timed move, the mount will move directly to the new position. This would be the proper way to send small dither commands to the mount, unfortunately not all programs

I agree, The two antivirus programs are independent, but Defender hasn’t changed much in many years, so it is just testing its new features now. Consider it a trigger happy Beta for a couple of
