N.I.N.A can't find the right rotation during sequence run Stefan Berg Nighttime Imaging 'N' Astronomy (N.I.N.A. / NINA) · DavesView · ... · 1 · 94 · 0

Using framing, I then 'Add target to sequence' and fine tune the sequence. I start the sequence and when it gets to the 'Slew, Center, Rotate' step, it slews, centers and the rotator turns one direction. It takes a snapshot and slews the other direction. It continues this back and forth until I stop it. Any ideas?

Generally this is a sign that you need to reverse the direction in the driver.  If ASCOM just click on the gear and there should be a flag there, or I think NINA has the same flag exposed on the equipment page. 

Be aware if you use PHD2 with the rotator that reversing the flag in ASCOM reverses it there. If PHD2 then doesn't work properly, there's a separate (non-ASCOM) reverse flag on the other equipment page.  Get NINA working first, then test PHD2 by calibrating, rotating 90 degrees, and guiding and if it runs amok flip the flag.
