Mach1 1200x move rate with 5.30.10 driver

Andy Ermolli
 

Since I updated the Ascom driver to the version 5.30.10 I am unable to move the Mach1 GTOCP3 with V chip at 1200x using the buttons in the driver window. 
The mount just won't move if I have 1200x selected.
If I select 600x, then I can move the mount but it moves at 1200x.
The 1200x works fine with the 1100. I have not tested it with the 900 yet.

Is it just me or are others having this issue?

Hi Andy,

I think there is an issue setting the proper move rate with 5.30.10 with CP3's. Almost all of the changes in the 5.30.x versions were for the Mach 2 and GTOCP4. If it’s a problem you can fall back to v5.20.01 until a new driver version is released.

If you would like to go back to the older driver, here is the link. You don't need to uninstall 4.30.10. You can just run the 5.21.02 installer.

Thank you Ray! I installed the version that you linked and all is working well now:)
Strange thing is that the 1200x rate worked fine with my cp4 1100 mount.

I have another issue with Nina and the mach1 but it could be related to the same driver problem. I will test tonight and may start a new thread.
