    This is a driver issue. When the methods to move are not implemented, nina is not able to do it

    Being able to move the telescope manually is not essential but it is very useful. I suggest, if possible, to modify the motion command with the "R - Slew Rate Commands" method which should be implemented in the LX200 protocol.
