Based on my LX200GPS experience, you appear to have a good connection to the mount:
Meade Generic driver - good
RA, Dec and Guidespeed are being reported from the mount - good
But during Cal, instead of RA progressing in a linear fashion, it's sometimes heading at approximately 90 degrees to the first step.
So here are eight Cal steps before the guide star was lost:
0, 90, 90, 90, 90, 0, 0, 0, Star Lost.
Either crossover of RA and Dec commands, or Polar Alignment is really poor.
The LX90 is on a wedge ?
Meade #505 cable (not #507) from the PC to the port in the Autostar handset ?
A USB from the guidecam output (not ST4 port) to the PC ?
RA and Dec Backlash Compensation are OFF in the handset ?
