Hello Harvey

I have a multipage TIF and a PDF of the G-5500 manual which I believe is
almost identical (eg, connectors, schematic) except:

o 5400 is S-N-S by defult, 5500 is N-S-N;
o 5400 cover 360 degrees of azimuth, 5500 covers 450 degrees;
o No limit switches in 5400;
o Start caps are in the control box for the 5400, in the rotator for the
5500.
