The Gemini is the GOTO system. Without it there is none - using its internal model, it controls the servos and provides the object database. A computer can drive the Gemini like any other GOTO. The standard Digital Drive just allows you to track and guide - that's it - it won't even slew. I prefer it this way because I prefer an ArgoNavis attached to my G-11 to provide me with push-to rather than GOTO.
