Hi, Paul! Thanks for your reply. The mount isn't new but I don't have a lot of experience with it yet (last year was pretty much dedicated to Dobsonians). I've been selecting "align" when model built

Hi, Paul! Thanks for the reply and the good comments. I'm using a Newtonian scope with a tight focuser and my 20 mm eyepiece does have an illuminated, cross hair reticle, so the most likely culprit is

Russ, Please clarify a few things. Is this a new mount to you? Is this something that has just started? Are your alignment stars spread out across the sky or close together? Are you selecting

Hi, Folks, I have a Losmandy GM8G using the Gemini II with the latest firmware update. I am using the polar scope and drift alignment only. After a 4 star model building, I instructed the Gemini II to

Thanks Brendan! I’ll check it when I’m back out at the observatory again.

8 minutes past the meridian puts the goto target at 98 °. Your safety limit is at 103.40 °. A flip will not happen, since the Goto limit is then at 101.10 ° and the target is 3+ ° before the Goto

I changed the Asiair settings to stop tracking 8 minutes before Meridian. And to flip (or GoTo command from Asiair) at 8 minutes past the Meridian. As for the limits Eastern is at 95.18, Western at

Did you change any of the settings? You said you have a 93° safety limit. This translates to 12 minutes of tracking past the meridian. If ASIAir stops at 1 minute before,? then a total of 13 minutes

The flip failed again this evening. However I did notice this clock countdown on the hand controller screen with the word Guide. I did not notice at what value the countdown began (probably at 60

Kurt you can identify your motors by shape see web page here ( https://gemini-2.com/Losmandy-motors.html ). But in short if the motor has no cooling fins it’s the old std motor. ?But I’m general

Our club scope is mounted on a Losmandy Titan mount. I noticed that our Dec servo motor has no identifying numbers on it, but our RA servo motor has? Losmandy SVM-HT marked on it. I know that the RA

You don't have to use flip points, these were introduced as an option with Gemini L6. If the two checkboxes are unchecked, your safety limits and the Western Goto limit will be used instead of flip

Thanks everyone for your input. However one question remains open in my mind. Should any of the two boxes on the screen of my pic (attached), showing using eastern or western flip points, be checked?

Hi Bruce, can you describe in more detail what didn't work with the three computers and w

How good is your polar alignment? If it's very approximate, you may have to keep adjusting DEC to track the sun.

Sounds like battery was low and system clock stopped. ?Other data was held in eeprom. Replace battery but probably do a factory default reset as you don’t know what else is corrupted. cheers --

Hi, group, I'm hoping this has been solved before. I was trying to track on the sun. During the process I realized that to correct for the sun's drift in time I had to use the dec button on the hand

Hi Tony, Both your Eastern and Western Safety Limits are set to 93 degrees... or 3 degrees past the meridian. The point of Meridian Flip = Western Safety Limit - Western GoTo Limit. Your Western GoTo
