Has anyone gotten the Nexguide autoguider to communicate with the Gemini I mount controller? Upon hooking mine up, I get an 'autoguider error' message. clear skies, Paul R. Post Extras:       Geo.

The G1 may not like the signals processed through the opto isolators, but then the Shoestring box shouldn't work either.
