I think it get's a little bit weird since the telescope will first slew EAST before going to it's defined park position (HORIZON WEST).
Not sure if the device acting as INDI Server is causing issues - I can only see Ekos/KStars plays more nicely with the device than my current INDI Lib.

I will need to evaluate what solution might be the best for me to ensure 100% the telescope is in the expected position... :-)
