This could also be the start of a serial communication issue or battery failure. I had this issue and it disappeared once I replaced the battery with a fresh cell. The Gemini 1 seems to start to have

Make sure your safety limits are set for your particular equipment and that you are not relying on the defaults. This will make a world of difference. Rob

Magnus, You could have had your "Limit" set incorrectly for East or West and that might also generate an "Interrupted" error. You can use your Gemini.net to set the limits to something sensible like

Hi! Thanks for the suggestion! No, I am absolutely sure I did not press any buttons. And strangely enough, the error seems not random - in that I could not slew to Mizar, but to Mirfak. I mean,

Hi Magnus, The "interrupted" message usually comes from the user pressing a button on the handset when the system is slewing to a target object. Is there any chance you might have something pressing

Hi! I thought I had posted on this problem before here, but cannot find my original post...so here is a new one. Problem: My G-11 seems to refuse to go to some locations, that should be unproblematic.

Even I get tired of beating a dead horse. Good Luck Jeff

I think anybody can measure the clutch bearing clearance in the mount using Plastigauge and It should be close enough to know if there is a problem or not. Using Plastigage has the advantage of

I hear ya on the AP mount Eric. but lucky for me ($) I'm a natural born tinkerer - Ha! So Losmandy is perfect. Regarding the hammer, it helped in my case but I still have a .003" out of parallel

I bead blasted the clutch surfaces of one of my G11's. It did indeed grip well, at the expense of more difficult balancing. The mount was used for astrophotography (30 minute subs). The clutch held

BTW, FWIW, this is definitely not the approach I would take to remedy the noted problem ! -Jeff

CWD == CounterWeight Down Dave

Counter Weight Down

I have the phone app, haven't tried it yet...Uh, what is CWD? Rodney

Like Les stated, for visual use, level is not critical and the NCP is a bit away from Polaris. I used to use a phone app called Polar Finder that shows where the NCP is relative to Polaris for your

Set the scope up in the bedroom and leveled. Put a weighted string down it. this is what I have. Once i do this outside, then zero in on Polaris, and do the two-star alignment, I'm assuming I'm good

I'm looking at those now Jeff. Think i will have to get one...The way your eyeball moves around the sight hole, it's hard to say when it is centered. Good point. Rod

Leveling the mount isn’t really critical. Then get the RA axis pointed at the north celestial pole by using the altitude and azimuth adjustments, regardless of what method you’re using for the

Yes. Rodney, when you say RA hole, does your mount have a Polar Alignment Scope (w/ reticle) in the hole? If not, your attempts will be very crude at best. And, you are correct, next time use the Alt
