I have used both the ASCOM and the Meade Drivers in 2.76 and the ASCOM driver in V3. Bother versions preformed well even using Bluetooth.

Small "Sync"ing adjustment are ok, but large ones will confuse the Autostar. If you mean "Connect" then ignore what I just said. Another thing some Autostars has trouble with is the refresh rate. I have 2 that work well at 500 but others that don't. I leave mine at 1000, which equals 1 second. Try changing the refresh rate and report back in detail and we can go from there. Bob
