Re: [guide-user] Guide 8 & a Losmandy G-11 Mount w/Gemini

Nothing to it....it will be recognized instantly by Guide once you plug the interface
cable into Gemini. There should be nothing more needed to do; typically you can run the
GM-11 via both the LX200 command link on the Telescope control on Guide or select the
Gemini mode....either will work.
