This tab serves for a management of all rotators included in the setup, the rotator connected to the SMD's local
Rotator port or rotators connected to uLINK ROTATOR modules or uLINK DATA modules.
The local Rotator port or uLINK ROTATOR modules support rotators using direct discrete control – those that
switch the motor/brake on and off and reads position using a potentiometer or pulse position sensor.
The uLINK DATA module supports rotators controlled by a serial (RS232) port using Hy-Gain DCU-1 or
ProSisTel protocols.
There are again several buttons at the bottom of the tab.
Buttons
Add
•
Adds new rotator to the list.
When adding a new rotator to the list, it is necessary to specify if it
is rotator with direct – discrete control or RS232, serial protocol
controlled rotator.
Remove
•
Removes selected rotator from the list.
Replace
•
Not used on this sub-tab.
Up
•
Promotes selected rotator to the higher position in the list.
Down
•
Demotes selected rotator to the lower position in the list
Store Settings
•
Stores settings of particular rotator to the uLINK module or SMD selected in CONTROL BOX drop down
box. Function of this button is equivalent to "Store box cfg" button at Control Boxes tab.
Store Memories
•
Stores four (4) azimuth memories and their labels to SMD. Memories are also stored with rest of SMD
configuration at Control Boxes tab.
NOTE: The Azimuth presets are stored in each SMD. Each SMD contains a single set of presets which apply to
all selected rotators. It is not possible to store individual presets for each rotator.
The Rotator tab allows configuring the internal rotator control interface for your particular rotator hardware.
