I have not yet found how to get the firmware version. It looks like the firmware manager does this in the unity app, and it seems a bit involved, so for now I will just leave this as an issue if you are using older firmware.

I am now looking at switching the mount commands to use the mount specific "flip" command. I'm not sure if this makes sense though as I'm not sure if there is any difference between doing a goto, and doing a flip with the NYX. On other mounts there are differences, and in some cases the "flip" command specific to the mount is more reliable than using a goto command with western/eastern limits set. Does anyone here know if there is a difference on the NYX? Has anyone been using meridian flips with the NYX?
