The PstRotatorAz program provides full control for the SteppIR antennas (Rotor & SDA100 controller), inclusive remote control over IP.
You can download and test it from: http://www.qsl.net/yo3dmu/index_Page346.htm
 
- Use a null modem cable between PC and DATA-OUT SteppIR connector.
- Set the serial port: "Communication / SteppIR COM Port".
- Check "Setup / SteppIR Controller". 
- A "SteppIR Controller" window will be opened. From there you have all the control over the SteppIR controller.
 
For remote over IP operation:
- You have to install the same PstRotatorAz in both remote and base station locations.
- Set "Communication/TCP Client" to the base station.
- Configure the IP address for the Client, and the Ports for both Server and Client.
To the remote site can be used a serial server, not only a PC. 
 
Any feedback or ideea for improvement is wellcome.
 
Best wishes,
