with an other error popping up. With AZ < 180 degrees the elevation works OK and with AZ > 180 degrees the elevation reverses.
In PST rotator I had to set Rotor Stop to North stop (being at 360 degrees) but that was still set for South stop from my normal antenna rotor.
running some tests now if I have to revert my change of wiring
My unconfirmed idea for tomorrow would be:
Remove the small gear from the AZ multiturn. Let the motor run and rotate the AZ gear 180 degrees. Re-attach the small gear. That should make the EL working as expected.
What about putting the code on a gitlab?
That’s part of the plan but I have not done that before.
One of the settings in the original (unmodified) arduino code set the max azimuth at 450 degrees.
I have a large gear with 100 teeth , and the potmeter gear has 10 teeth. So, one turn of the large gear (AZ) , 360 degrees, makes the potmeter rotate 10 turns. There is no space in my brain to make this setup work for 450 degrees, unless I set minimum AZ to 90 degrees which, I think, absolutely makes no sense.
