Hi Cola,
The CGEM mount has a HC (hand controller) but it can be also controlled using a computer (software is supplied on a CD or can be downloaded from the Celestron website.
I set it up with the Hand Controller and the average time to align it is roughly 15min – two star alignment + 4 calibration stars + polar alignment.
