Re: Hand controller opening up in “Night Mode”…
We don't do shame here, it's just complicated.? All these years later the latest Gemini firmware still offerers very sophisticated internal operations and user features.

Re: PemPro settings for G11T
Hi George, use the Gemini L4/5/6 tab and connect PEMPro to ?the ASCOM driver. Have Gemini turned on. PEMpro will get all the settings needed for your mount directly from Gemini.

PemPro settings for G11T
Hi folks,
Does anyone know which mount or mount settings to use for PEMPro for the G11T? That specific mount doesn't show up on the list. Do I just input the settings manually?

Re: Problem with PEMPro not drawing in all needed G11G (Gemini 2) Mount & Camera info for valid PE review and analysis
Hi Mike,
The debug log does not indicate the underlying cause, but there was a lapse in communication with the Gemini driver from about 20:38:08 to 22:12:00, resulting in some empty mount values.
