Hi there,
First of all MERRY XMAS for all !!!!....I´m using this holiday season to set up
my new AlfaSpid SPX01 AZ/EL rotor. It´s part of a LEO satellite station that
I´m building when weather allows.
Yesterday I put the rotor on my workbench and started to test it on azimuth.
Wiring is correct, power is 13.8v and rotation is smooth. I found out that the
rotor is missing 25% of its rotation.
Put it on 0º degrees but when it reach 45º, controller says its on 90º....when
it reach 90º it says it´s on 180 and when it´s on 270 it says it´s on 359 and
stops rotation (got then configured for 360º North stop).
Looks likes it counts 2 pulses for every degree instead of one. The same
applies for elevation movement. Any ideas???...This is my first alpha spid
rotor. Happy holiday season.
