i have been experimenting and figuring out how to get the losmandy g2 Goto to finally work with the new updates.
The procedure is Press goto Brightstar then pick the star you want to use. Let it slew to the star. Align the star in the lowest power eyepiece and center it. Then throw in a medium powered eyepiece i use a 13mm. Center it again then hit Initial Alignment. You only need a 1 star alignment. Hit goto Saturn for example and saturn will be in the FOV of the 13mm providing you centered the alignment star.
I used a Celestron C14 to do this. :thumbsup:
