#bluepill Can you tell us whether onstep can realize automatic meridian flip
#bluepill
You can do it both way. NINA's automatic meridian flip works on her own and have nothing to do with settings in the controller, if you're doing imaging sequence you should configure NINA to do flips.

please verify I am doing this right,
Idk about SP, but ASCOM driver can sync time properly, (same as Android App). First you need to setup location and tick "Set Date/Time on connect" then apply and reconnect.

Afaik there is no such thing as TMC2103. There is TMC2130 but it's different and that pinmap will not work for TMC2208/TMC2209 (or vice versa) as they have different type of interface. For MKS Gen L v

Manual slew rates in NINA and OnStep ASCOM driver
Actually it does. In NINA 2.0 there is new plugin called Scope Control which can be installed easily from NINA plugin manager. This is not the same as one in equipment manager.

USB - Onstep MaxESP3 hangs UP
Maybe try to remove power from your USB cable: cut out 5V wire (red) and leave other three wires intact: D+, D- and GND (green/white/black) and try that way? I read about similar issues with R32 board

Erything EQMOD can do, can also be done with OnStep via Android App, SHC or SWS. Only thing present in EQMOD and missing in OnStep is custom horizon, which I never found particularly useful.
