[amsat-bb] Problem with Sat Tracker

[Jim White <jim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm having trouble getting a SASSI Sat Tracker to work with a Yaesu G 5500 
rotor (the new one).  When we run the ROTOR program to do the calibration 
we find the following problem:  When we turn the rotor in az with the 
switch on the front of the control box we get no indication on the 
ROTOR.EXE graphic readout.  When we turn the rotor manually in elevation we 
see both the elevation and az indicators move on the graphic 
readout.  Smells like crossed wires, but we are using the cable that came 
with the Sat Tracker.

Anyone have this problem?  Is there a difference in the pin out of the 
connector on the back of the control box that would cause this?  Is there 
some software setup in the ROTOR.EXE that I haven't found which tells it 
this is a 5500 not at 5400 or ?

Any info appreciated.
