I have the same exact setup.? Forecast here is for clear skies tomorrow and Tuesday night.? I'll give the nudge command a try and report back

Hoping you can help me with an issue, which I assume is operator error, but I can't track it down. I am using Maxim DL6 with the ASCOM Gemini driver (v.1.0.75) on my Losmandy G-11. Scope connects as it should, syncs, and long slews are fine. However, in Maxim on the Telescope tab of the observatory control I want to "nudge" the scope by a few seconds of arc. It appears that all of the buttons, N S E W make the mount "nudge" in the same direction and it moves far beyond the 1-2 seconds I specify. If I open the Gemini hand control in the ASCOM driver, I am able to move the scope in very small increments using the guide or center slewing speeds; everything works as it should. Going back to Maxim, still not working in the Nudge commands.

Have others experienced this? Am I just missing some setting in either the Gemini driver or Maxim?
Would appreciate any suggestions.
