Uni-directional DEC guiding is often used for mounts with severe backlash. This however requires the user to figure out which direction the correction should be applied (DEC+ or DEC-). And on meridian flip this will I guess change. It would be great if the guider module could figure the most likely direction (maybe a button like Auto or something) based on the dominant drift after a few minutes.
