Hey guys, I have some serious problems with this Gemini 2.
I just tried again to connect via USB to Maxim using the Gemini.net drivers.
There was a long delay, repeated timeout messages but after a while Maxim reported that it had connected. But it would not obey any commands.
So I disconnected it and tried the same thing via TheSkyX and again, it reported that a connection had been made but no commands were being obeyed. I checked the log and commands were reported as having been sent and received.
So I disconnected the PC entirely and decided to just use the hand controller. And this is the ugly part - it too had become unresponsive. The only action the mount would take was to slew to the west using the relevant arrow - but not to any other arrows, no slew or goto commands etc.
To all intents and purposes, it is dead.
Guys, does anyone have any words of encouragement?
Peter
