Hi Frank

?

Please make sure you are using the latest beta of Gemini Telescope.net

https://gemini-2.com/ASCOM.html

?

(this is for the trouble shooter feature below)

?

?

Please do only the things I mentioned, do not use the planetarium program, don¡¯t sync before, do not do anything other than the steps I outlined. Use only the Gemini Telescope.net for the meridian flip. The goal is to reduce the # of variables here, so sorry to be a stickler about this.

?

If you can take a picture of your scope/mount prior to attempting meridian flip, please post

?

Flip using Gemini Telescope.net only

?

What happens? What messages are on the hand controller/Gemini Telescope.net?

?

If that doesn¡¯t work please use the troubleshooting report feature and post both of those here

?

Thanks

My tests are done inside. I hope this is what you mean. Using only the HC from a cold star at CWD, I slewed to a bright star and synced. Then I took the attached.
After this, I connected on the PC and checked the planetarium - and they agree with where the scope is pointing.
Then via the HC went to just over the meridian ( tried various spots ) and tried to meridian flip at them - all failed.
