Now also the Gemini G41 mount with the new Pulsar "Goto" Controller has been arrived. So, the testing of C14 and G41 can start. The weather is very good and i will be ready with my equipment for our Astroexcursion to the Emberger Alm in Carinthia. Here some images of the new combination in my garden.

Download of Ephemerides for PULSAR Control Unit:


These tables allow you to control your Gemini mount with Pulsar using 
the right GOTO coordinates for Sun, Planets and NGC objects.

These tables work perfect on my Pulsar 2.44 and Gemini 41.
I cannot take any responsibility if these tables do not work
properly on your controller and mount.

The use of these tables IS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!!!
