Connecting ASIAIR MINI to AZ-GTIX

[Rigel]

I have an ASIAIR Mini that I am trying to link to my AZ-GTIx. I have watched all of the available YouTube vids on the topic, and read as much as I can., but to no avail. I am stuck. I can not get the two devices to play nicely together. 

I read that it is better to connect the ASIAIR to the mount via a cable (so that the ASIAIR can use the higher WIFI signal rate for transferring data to my ipad.  I  purchased a suitable Lynx cable for the job. 

I configure the mount as 'EQMOD'. Nuzzing...

Step-by-step instructions would be much appreciated - I am a neophyte here.

I feel very dumb but this thing has me stumped. 

Best regards,

Malcolm.

Does this operate in equatorial mode as the asiair uses this coordinate system?

I have built a model of Alt-Az fork mount for John Moore University based on an OnStep and it works with the ASIAir (Plus in our case). ASIAir switches itself depending on the mount's firmware setting. I doubt that the Mini cannot do it as well.

Could be the baud rate setting then. FYI when I used the standard azgti with them I used an eqdir cable but many people have used the cable youve already got.

Running in Alt-AZ. This is set in the ASIAIR setup.

I would be happy to know where is this feature.
