Note: Using a letter key that already has a position stored
to it in this step erases the old position stored and stores
the new one.

Using the Programmable
Antenna Rotator
To go to a programmed antenna position: Press the
letter key for that position on the remote or on the
control unit’s front panel.
The drive unit turns the antenna to that position, and
the control unit displays the position of the antenna in
degrees.
To stop the rotator while it’s going to a programmed
position: Turn the control unit off, then turn it back on.
Press the INITIAL key to resynchronize the unit.
To fine-tune the antenna position (or position
manually): Press the > or < keys on the remote control
or control unit’s front panel to move the antenna
clockwise (>) or counter-clockwise (<).
Note: If you press the INITIAL key by mistake, press
the INITIAL key again to stop the reset procedure. Then
continue with the action you were trying to perform.
