starry night pro and skysensor 2000 slew problem

Hi all,

I recently got myself a vixen skysensor 2000 pc for my Vixen GPE mount and being a confirmed gadget-freak, i'm trying to get it to work with Starry Night Pro on Mac (OS X 10.5)
I have the skysensor 2000 in lx200 mode, and it does connect from SNP and report its DEC/RA. I can drive the 'scope from SNP using the telescope control, and if I move the 'scope using the skysensor, its position is reflected on screen.

What it won't do however, is slew to a selected object. I have no idea why not or how to diagnose what is (not) happening.

seems very little on the web about this. anyone have any ideas/clues?

Chris
