Celestron drivers: some way to handle "home sensors" remotely?

Hi!

I've been touching upon this before - used to play with a CGE but now have a CGE-pro. I wonder if there is any way to remotely handle the homing function on these?

What I've used so far is the Nexstar driver, connecting through the hand control. For this, the telescope needs to be aligned before it works. And that needs to be done manually.Now there is a DIY device using Arduinos that can solve this for AVX and similar mounts, that do not have these home sensors. So it seems I am stuck for the moment with the need to do a manual alignment before I can use Ekos. 

Or: is there any way to do this? The celestron-aux-driver, where is that on this? (never got it to work)

Anyone got ideas are very welcome!!
