My mount does not have Gemini, so maybe that's the difference?
When I power on the mount it seems the PEC is never on, so if I want to use it I'll have to train it again. I also cannot find anything in the Losmandy manual about this, only the instructions for how to record the PEC in the first place.
I do imaging but yes only at relatively short exposures. I longest I've tried was around 4 minutes. Normally under a minute because I really need guiding to go any longer than that.
