I wasn't clear in my original post.? I do have the SAO catalog on my GoTo lists in the hand controller.? I am asking about a way to go to Epsilon Lyrae or Nu Scorpii without having to look up
their SAO numbers and then enter them in the SAO section to target the Go To
You can use
Gemini ASCOM (read their instructions) to amend or create Gemini catalogues and upload/download them to your Gemini.? Make your own call it double stars"" or whatever! ?? Once uploaded to the gemini its easy to use.?? Or create your own catalogue (what ever name) and enter the name? Epsilon Lyrae like this.? I think your limited to 50 char limit for each entry and 20 char for the name..
You don't even need Gemini ASCOM you can make the file yourself in a text editor as shown and save it as a ".guc"file.
Epsilon Lyrae,18:44:20,+39:40:12, Double Double#? or
? Lyrae,18:44:20,+39:40:12, Double-Double#
name , Right Ascension , DEclination , information ????(separator comma is important) --
