And nothing happens.

I have set up first PstRotatorAZ, clicked “Tracking”, and selected WriteLog from tracker list.  A small “DDE” window is opened.

Then opened WriteLog to setup new contest (CQWW DX).  In setup of rotator, selected “MSG” and “Sartek” as shown on page 28.

Now, from main Writelog operating screen, nothing seems to affect the rotator.  (Previously <alt-a> would set rotor bearing)

What next?

The answer is yes. You can find how to set Writelog to communicate with PstRotatorAz in the User Manual (Help / User manual), page 28.
