Hi

i'm using an ioptron cem 120 with dual encoder and for the moment it doesn't seem to need the guide.

In the SGP settings i set ' direct mount guider'  to perform the dithering but  it seems that the movement occurs only on one axis.
Is there something i'm doing wrong?

I don't use SGP but is there not a setting that lets you dither in X, Y, or both.

It only allows you to enable the direct mount guider, there are no other settings apart from the pulse duration

That sounds odd that any program would not let you dither in both directions.
