Hi guys,

I am tring to connect my Gemini II to starry night but in the Telescope control panel under status SN reports "No plug-in installed".

I have downloaded and installed the Ascom 6 platform and the Ascom Gemini telescope controller V1.029.0 and also the Gemini II drv file from the gemini yahoo group and can controll the mount via the gemini controller.

I have checked the plug-in folder in SN and the ascomscope.plug file is there.

Spec:

Del Lap top
Windows 7 Home Prem SP1
Starry Night Pro Plus 6
G11 W/Gemini II
USB connection.

I have uninstalled all above software and reinstalled it but cannot get SN to recogise the ascom plug-in.

Has anbody else using SN via usb to controll thier Gemini II? Did you have any problems and if so how did you fix them.

Problem solved.

Downloaded latest updates for Starry Night and this fixed the problem.
Lesson learnt. Even if you think you've checked everything check again!!
