pstrotator tft display quotation

PstRotator supports separate antenna rotator controllers for Azimuth and Elevation control.It can controltwo separate rotor interfaces: one for azimuth and the second for elevation, or it can control a single azimuth + elevation rotor interface.

The program checks all the time the link status, and if it happens from any external reason to disconnect, the software will try to reconnect the client to server. The link status is displayed to both client and server.MAPS

PstRotator and PstRotatorAz are Shareware - you can try them for free, once you register them, you will receive a code to disable the reminder messages that will otherwise appear at start. In order to let you try the software, the programs are full functional for 10 minutes, and then stop, and the QTH locator is changed to KN34BJ.

Please download and try PstRotator or PstRotatorAz before you purchase a registration for them, as I want you to be sure you like PstRotator or PstRotatorAz before you pay for them!

You have to install thePstRotatorAzprogram in both remote and base station locations, or you can use a Serial Server (Ethernet to serial adapter) like the one manufactured byLantronix,Moxa(or others) in the remote site.

PstRotatorcan work not only as an interface for all the very known satellites tracker programs, but it can work also as a standalone satellites tracker.

You canhave notifications that trigger an email, run a script, launch a program, or are read out loud. 73

It displays all the stations on the cluster close to the radio’s frequency between plus/minus15 KHz with respect to the selected spot. (Other calls on the frequency indicate that thestation is within plus/minus 1 KHz from each other).

Below is displayed the list that resulted from the search above ready for editing entries or export toADIF, CSV or printer. 79

The logbook can be filtered to display QSL status by QSL Type, QSL Sent, QSL Sent Via, QSL Received,QSL Received Via, Dates and Call sign or by using the Search parameters facility.

a. Without entering a call sign in the "Callsign" field click the ‘Search’ button at the top, or press Enter/Return on the keyboard, to display all QSO’s in the logbook in descending date order.

This screen displays all the relevant information for the contact except for the QSL receivedstatus.The information can be updated from QRZ.com or HamQth by clicking the relevant button.

This Screen displays the results of the connected Telnet cluster and may be filtered by making theappropriate selections at the bottom right of the screen. i.e:-

The super cluster quality improves from ‘Poor’ as each additional contact report isreceived. This increases the reliability until, in some instances, ‘Excellent’ isdisplayed.

This window graphically displays the data from the Super Cluster F2 window.Clicking a spot will display the call information. 120

When the ‘Country Statistics’ display opens, it shows all ‘Current’ countries. To include ‘Current’plus ‘Deleted’ countries, select ‘Show Deleted’ from the selections at the bottom of the window. 125

Selecting ‘Actual View’ displays various QSL status methods. Selecting one of them will cause the‘tree’ to change, reflecting the updated status for each country for the selected QSL method. 126

From the ‘Modes’ drop-down selection, select the desired Mode to be displayed: 128

1. In the QSO Archive Manager set up some search parameters to refine the displayed list of QSO’s e.g. It is only required to see QSO’s that have:

1) Select the desired QSO from the QSL Management window 2) Check either or both of the DXCC Challenge check boxes for submitted or credited which ever is true. 3) Save and exit the Update QSO window 4) The change will now be reflected in the DXCC Challenge display 139

If a state has been entered incorrectly and displays characters other than the standard stateabbreviation’s the bottom row of the WAS list will show an extra row named “Not found”

However when an Italian call sign is entered the award will be displayed in the “Award Program” listfor selection and References 1, 2 & 3 will be available in the “references” list.

Entering a call sign for Italy will display references 1-3 and reference 6Entering a call sign for Canada it will show NOTHING, because filter at DXCC level wins. So this is anexample of a bad award definition.

DXCC can be set as number (e.g. 294) or as a prefix (e.g. GW). Log4OM will try to import it as DXCCor trying to match the prefix with our country table. If the import fails an error message will bedisplayed.

Awards data is saved in the “QSO Award” field and can be displayed in the recent QSO, QSO Archive,QSL Manager and QSO information windows by clicking the “Layout” button at the bottom of eachwindow. 146

Click the “Award Program” drop-down menu in the Club and Awards F3 tab – Only awards applicableto the country (According to the call sign entered), band, mode and valid date range entered in theinput window will be displayed.

Rotator ControlLOG4OM interfaces with the fabulous PstRotator AZ program by Codrut YO3DMU which controls awide range of azimuth and elevation rotators. The trial version of this program can be downloadedfrom http://www.qsl.net/yo3dmu/index_Page346.htm/. The trial version runs for 10 minutes andthen closes if not registered for a small fee.

3. Check the “PSTRotator Connection (UDP)” box and ensure that the port number matches 4. Check either the “Send Azimuth” or “Send callsign” box 5. If using a SteppIR antenna select this check box. 6. Click the save icon indicated below 7. Close the rotator window 8. Restart Communicator 9. Minimise the Communicator window – Do not close it! 179

2. On the Physical Schemata toolbar, click the + button (framed in red in the screen shot above) to add a new schema. This will create a new schema and display a tab sheet for the schema. In the tab sheet, change the name of the schema to ‘A name that is easy to remember such as the appropriate call sign’, by typing into the field called ‘Name’. Ensure that this change is reflected on the Physical Schemata tab. Now add a table to the schema. If a message dialog appears requesting permission to rename all schema occurrences, click ‘Yes’ to apply the name change. 199
