Gemini 2 Quick Start Guide

This guide will help you get started with your Gemini 2 controller. It covers installa-

tion, conﬁguration, and basic usage.

Installing Gemini 2

The Gemini 2 case is the same width as all previous Losmandy control units and can be

attached onto your mount or pier using the same hardware as your previous unit if you

are upgrading.

After mounting the unit, connect the motors using the 6 pin DIN cables. Make sure

you connect the RA motor to the RA connector and the Dec motor to the DEC connec-

tor on the Gemini 2 unit.

There are two serial ports on the Gemini 2. Serial port 1 is typically used to communi-

cate with a computer and serial port 2 is used to connect to the graphical hand con-

troller. Use the coiled cable with RJ-12 connectors to connect the hand controller to

serial port 2 on the Gemini unit. Serial Port 1 can also be used with a GPS unit. Please

note that the pinouts of the serial ports are not the same as on the original Gem-

ini (now referred to as Gemini 1).

Please do not plug a serial cable or device designed

for the Gemini 1 into the Gemini 2.

There could be damage to the Gemini 2 or your device. The com ports on the

Gemini 2 have +5V DC on them. See link below for wiring diagram.

Connect the supplied power cable to either of the power connectors on the right side

of the unit. Be sure to use a regulated power supply or a battery which can provide

12~18 volts DC at 3 amps or higher.

Getting Started

After all the cables are connected, power on the Gemini 2 unit. When you power up

the unit, you will see the following screens

1 - When you power up for

the ﬁrst time you will see this

screen. Press anywhere.

2 - Using a plastic stylus or

retracted ballpoint pen,

press the center of each of

the three dots as they

appear sequentially.
