Are you setting local date, or UTC date?? Could this be the problem as they usually differ by a day.. At least in the evening in North America.. Derek _____ Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2020 2:41 PM

Yes, that's my guidescope.. I am aware it may not work, but it better because if I have to go to an off axis guider, I would have to also replace my filter wheel and filters too.. None of them are the

Well now I'm curious on what you plan to do with this plate I avoid rings like the plague for anything but a finder scope because they are so prone to flexure and movement through the night that for

Maybe, though I don't think the Losmandy adapter will fit there so I think it has to go in a different set of holes.. If you look at the guidescope rings, the image shows 4 sets of adjustment screws..

You have a Gemini-2.... so I can't say. If this were a Gemini-1, I'd suggest the Epson RTC chip may be defective. I have bought extras if those chips, though I know of no Gemini-1 actually suffering

This is more of an FYI since it doesn't directly relate to the gemini time settings, but I have started using Dimension 4 time sync on my computer that continuously updates the time every 30 minutes

Brian, I will check this out tonight when I get home and see if my Gemini still has the correct time. My tracking the New Years eve was as good as my polar alignment. I left the mount to sit for 30

Lo all, I seem to be having a problem with the Gemini 2 on my Titan keeping the date up to date.? The time is remaining correct, but it lags behind on the date, I have had to go in and update the

Derek, Remove just one screw, noting the tension with a precise instrument - the human hand. Then take it to a DIY or Ace store as suggested by one of our other friends. When you get back to the mount

Derek, you are a lot further along than I am. I'm doing baby steps to learn this mount. I am very sure that when I start doing AP the frustrations are going to happen I know this to be a truth.

Oh, but Derek, I live close enough to drop in at the factory..... 8^) Thank You Magnus, it looks interesting. But I'm more apt to stay with the programs I have.

That's so awesome, Deric! I had *serious* frustration for months, and again, it wasn't the mounts fault.. But I do have a bit of wisdom for "newbies".. I think I made a fundamental mistake from the

In Large Derek, that is how I learn, I forgot to put the minus sign the time zone ( 6 ) instead of ( -6 ) my mount thought it was 12 hours ahead of me. A bit of frustration, then I remembered a

For reasons unknown, the Gemini can end up with erroneous T pointing model values. To fix this: 1. Park the mount 2. Power off and on...in "cold boot" 3. Do your star alignments. Do 3 in the East of
