Hi Dave & all,

same situation here. Wrote a mail to Ron on July, 15th
(see below). No reaction so far.

Hi Ron,

this week I got my new OR2800PDC rotator. It works ok offline
and online under control of WINDOWS HyperTerminal program.
I have made all appropriate settings for WriteLog, but the
rotator does not move at all, no error messages. It seems
that the manufacturer M2 Antenna Systems Inc. has changed
the interface protocol (latest version 2.3.0).

In the attachment please find an excerpt from the documents
supplied with my unit, concerning programming issues.
Maybe that some day Wayne could find a way to modify WriteLog
for communication with this rotator interface. 
Would be nice.
