The Out Voltage Adj.... According to my GS-232 Manual
is to adjust the reading you get when "hooked up" to the
GS-232 controller...

For your rotator it reads as follows for AZ...
1) set AZ fully clockwise(to the right) ((south.... 180))
2) Press F and return.... (I will not go into the painstaking part here) but
     it returns "+xxxx" which is the internal # it comes up with for
degrees...
    In this case it should read 180... (0180)..... You then tweak the "Out
Voltage Adj"
    till its right... (a Pain if you ask me....)
3) I find no other reference for it in this manual....
 4) I think your Controller box and cabling need a big hug.... cause
something
     is not right....
