A Google search did not reveal any manual/schematic info.

However, if the controller was designed for CDE/Telex/HyGain
rotators, forget about controlling a Alfa-Spid rotator.

CDE/HyGain are AC motors, Alfa-Spid are DC.
CDE/HyGain use a rheostat for direction indication, Alfa-Spid a
magnetic (pulse) switch.

We had one at our WA7EGA contest station years ago.

Its  for a Hy-gain rotor. We used it on a tailtwister.

I'm sure a google search will turn up a manual. I don't have a manual.

I just acquired a Prosearch controller, SN PSE1N2351, along with the transformer. But I have absolutely no info about what it is compatible with, how to hook it up, how to use it, etc. etc.. It looks very much like this one, which details you cannot really make out, as there's no light: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=FeSsYUEl978&ab_channel=Off-GridGarage And as a matter of fact, I'm hoping to use it with an Alfa-Spid RAK-1 rotator which I already have to turn my old, venerable Wilson 77-foot STB-77, which I hope to equip with 5L 20m and 15m yagis, much like that guy with the youtube video is doing.

Where can I find info on this box, please?

TNX,
