To track the sun with the CGEM hand control you need to do three things:

1: Put a solar filter on the scope

2: Go to Utilities in the menu section then select "Sun menu" and press enter. This will include the sun in planets catalog, it can be used as an alignment object when using the solar system alignment method to align the go to function of the mount.

3: Go to Tracking in the Menu section then click "Rate" then select "Solar"

To remove the sun from the object catalog, once again select Sun Menu from the Utilities Menu and press enter.
thanks for your help will try that
