Greetings: my older version Gemini 2 seems to be working okay, good internal 3v battery, version 5.1 firmware. I launched the firmware updater and it couldn’t connect on either Ethernet or USB from

It also helps to use an eyepiece that yields moderate power with an illuminated reticle/ cross hair during alignment.? Seriously, apparently many of not most people have no idea where the actual

IME if you do three stars on one side of the meridian then move the mount to the other side and align on one more star you will get a better model. -- Chip Louie Chief Daydreamer Imagination Hardware

Everything seem to work now, except that some of the menu items ?on the embedded web-server? (HandControl, MobileHandControl, Manual and Serial Command Set) return a 404 (not found) error. So

I don't know if this will help or not now but here goes.? Might help for the future. I just completed the update to L6.1.? Unfortunately, I can't use the GFU or the Flash Firmware command on the

Good! 8) You probably don't need AltAz, but all the remaining. If you can't use GFU, either use one of your previous cards and upload the few new files put the SD card in your reader and copy the rest

Thanks a lot, Rene and Paul, the Gemini is up and running again! The handcontroller looks fine but the web page is a bit rudimentary:? What other files are required/recommended for a fully function

Hi Erik, try doing what René suggested: copy the *NewGem.bin* file to the SD card using a card reader, and rename it to *HGM_Gem2.bin* , then put it back into Gemini and turn it ON. This should force

You discovered the secret to creating a model, 3 stars or more will create a good model, if you get good enough star visibility to do more than 3 this should improve accuracy however 3 should do it.

Hi again, I see I left out a possible important thing: When upgrading to 6.1 I first attempted uploading the NewGem.bin file with Gemini by way of FTP. Then I tried activating the new firmware through

Hi Erik, Please format a SD card and copy the Newgem.bin file onto it. Rename it to HGM_Gem2.bin. Put it into the Gemini board's socket. Power on and wait for about 30 seconds. Then plug the HC into

Hi group! First posting here from a longtime lurker. I bought my G11 with Gemini II new 4 years ago and have been using it sucessfully ever since. This summer I also managed to upgrade to level 6: PIC

I finally had a clear night. When I had the problem there wasn't a lot of stars to align to because of trees so I was just using two stars going back and forth between the two. That was my problem.

I know I'm late to the party but my favorite thing to do is connect the Gemini 2s to the home LAN using Ethernet and then map the Geminis using Windows File Explorer.? This allows you full access to

Now that is a lovely mirror cell!? This counterweight tip works for large triplet refractors too where the focuser is a smaller lighter visually oriented model or the refractor is just a poorly

Thanks Chip, I called Losmandy last week and they recommended the pier and RAEXT.? I will get the motors tucked in a few months.? The pier and RAEXT arrive tomorrow.? Apparently FedEX is also

Ah... Great idea Chip, thanks! The rear end of my OTA got much lighter when I went to the Aurora Precision EQ cell but the drawback was that it hung much further down. That is a solid input. Cheers

Never mind, I found it..... Kevin

Hi Ryan, Another trick I have used and something you might consider if your mount is not payload limited is to add some counterweights on top of or behind the mirror end of the tube.? This allows you

Sorry to ask a really stupid question - I see how to upload an individual file to the SD - but there must be a simple way to upload folders. I just spent the last couple hours and can't figure it out.
