Re: G11 with Gemini2 issues with Go To

 

Hi James,

I'm one one the rarities in this group: I only have Gemini1 units so far.? Many of them....

So I cannot say explicitly that your Gemini-2 is exactly?the same as what I wrote.? You will have to see, or another owner with a G2 may tell us.??

I understand that there was only a PDF Gemini-1 manual, but not a PDF Gemini-2 manual.? I think the behavior and code are essentially the same between the two units, but the G-2 has more modern settings for new mounts.? The G-1 does not have the GM811 version listed, but is handled by using the Custom mount entries...and that is how I also handle McLennan metal gearbox mod that reverses the RA direction.? The G-2 would have the GM811 listed.?

(And....try the Cold Boot first to see if it fixes your pointing at the ground problem!)

All the best,
Michael

Thank you Michael,

You mentioned the issues with Gemini 1. I have the Gemini 2 but with the first version of the control board. Will the above advice work for my version as well, and the attached manual is for the Gemini 1 and 2? I am going to try all of your suggestions today and see if I can get some consistency from the mount. Also, is there a factory reset? Maybe just starting as though the mount is brand new with all new info would be helpful, if it is reading cinfusing data?

Thanks for your indepth response,

James
