Hello Guide and FS2-user,

I'm using Guide 8 to control my GEM (WAM 350) via the FS2 (a
popular german telescope drive unit wich is LX 200 compatible). It
works very nice, but...

when moving to an object the telescope is pointing about 10 to 15
arcmin to far to the east in most cases (when moving 20 deg or so).
After setting a new reference in Guide's telescope control window I
noticed that the coordinates between Guide and the FS2 hand control
box (which shows the coordinates too) differ. The coordinates of the
FS2 control box are 2 to 4 arc min to far to the east. Declination is ok.

Does anybody know why?
