<li>Make sure you have at least a 12V 3 Amp DC power supply for
Gemini-2 controller. Ideally, the Gemini works best with a 15-18v power supply. Losmandy's 15v 4.3amp AC-DC power supply is available <a href="http://store.losmandy.com/acdc">here</a>.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li> Plug the hand controller into the proper port. For the Gemini-2 Mini
use the "HC" port. For the original larger Gemini-2 use the "Serial 2" port.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li> Please go through the <a href="quickstart/index.html" target="_self"
title="This tutorial will help you set started"> quick start
tutorial</a>. You do not have to have the motors connected to
do all of the steps in paragraph 3 through 8. The mount will
beep at you, but it does not hurt anything. </li>
<ul style="list-style-type:none">
<br>
<li> Make sure you have your mount type set correctly.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li> Set your Latitude, Longitude and time zone. <a href="lat_long_from_address.html"
target="_self" title="Computes your latitude, longitude from your address.">Compute
Latitude and Longitdue from your address</a> will help you
do this correctly. It can compute for almost any address in
the world. <br>
<br>
</li>
<li> Input your local time correctly. Make sure to account
for Daylight saving time. The Computation above also
gives you the correct "Time-Zone-Offset" to use.<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li> You really want to <a href="limits.html" target="_self" title="Explains Limits and helps you set them.">
set your "Limits"</a> so that you do not damage the mount or
telescope.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li> Connecting to your computer:</li>
<br>
<ul style="list-style-type:none">
<li>Connecting via Ethernet directly to a computers Ethernet
port:<br>
</li>
<ul style="list-style-type:disc">
<li> You will need to determine the default gateway of your
network. </li>
<ul style="list-style-type:circle">
<li> Click Start > All Programs > Accessories >
Command Prompt.<br>
<i>or</i><br>
</li>
<li> in Windows 10 right mouse click the start icon and
select "Windows Power Shell (admin)" <br>
</li>
<li>When Command Prompt is open, type the following command:
ipconfig | findstr /i "Gateway" You normally
can copy and paste the command. <br>
</li>
<li>You should see your default gateway (router) IP address
is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx an example might be: 192.168.0.1<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li>If you are going to directly connect the Gemini-2 to a
Ethernet port of a computer, you will have to modify the <a
href="crossovernetwork.html" target="_self">Computer's
Ethernet port to a Static IP address</a>.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Set the IP address on the <a href="hc/En-networkmenu_A.html"
target="_self" title="Set network to DHCP."> hand
controller</a> to Static by unchecking the DHCP checkbox.
<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Make sure that the IP address you set in the hand
controller IS NOT the same one you set for your computers
Ethernet port.<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li>If you are going to connect the to your network via a
Ethernet switch or router, then you want to make sure the
Gemini-2 is set for DHCP. Do this on the <a href="hc/En-networkmenu_A.html"
target="_self" title="Set network to DHCP."> hand
controller</a>. <br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>
<li> Now make sure you can see the WEB interface of the Gemini-2
controller.<br>
<br>
</li>
<ul style="list-style-type:none">
<li> Open up a Web browser such as Firefox or Chrome.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li> In the address bar, type the IP address that is found in
the <a href="hc/En-networkmenu_A.html" target="_self">Hand
Controllers Network page</a>. An example might be
http://192.168.0.111</li>
<br ?="">
<li> When the login box appears, type "admin" for the user
(without the quotes), and leave the password blank. Hit
"Enter"<br>
<br>
</li>
<li> If you cannot connect to the Web Interface, you will not be
able to connect to the ASCOM Gemini.net Driver.<br>
