Beta 4.1.10856 64 bit will not connect to OnStep mount

Robin-

I tried using Beta 4.1.10856 64 bit today but received a command string error regarding connecting to my OnStep mount (ascom driver 1.0.23). I have been using the 4.0.9562 (64 bit) release with no issues and when tried today connected without a hitch. Unfortunately I did not save that error message. I saw that there is a newer ascom driver for OnStep (1.0.31), so I downloaded and installed it. It connects perfectly to 4.0.9562 (64 bit) and also connects to NINA. However, I get an error message when using Beta 4.1.10856. This time I saved the error messages screen shots (yay!). I will attach the screenshots and the log file below. I did not have the focuser connected so the log file shows an error for that also. The focuser is not a problem.
I have restarted my laptop and the mount several times since updating the ascom driver with no change.

Thanks for your attention,

Chuck

Robin--

Ooops!.. Looks like you worked on this and found the issue an hour ago. I had not read the post as it mentioned bluetooth in the subject, but the error messages appear identical. I will wait for Mondays release and report results.

Thanks,

Chuck
