Years ago I changed a part of the electronics from a SuperJack V-box for Moteck SG2100 circuit board .
Because of that mod , which made it possible to control a also modded Jeager SMR1224 or a AJAK by Usals , the original V-Box display became useless .
For Usals the pulser must make 38 pulses / degree , so if you have arc of 170º , the total amount is over 6000 pulses , the V-Box can handle only 2000 .
That V-Box was all those years in use by my friend PaulvR for his AJAK H2H rotor , but he was missing the counter .
Two years ago I saw for the first time a DiseqC rotor with a display and already that time I was thinking about the use of the inner parts of that rotor .
So I decided to order that PREMIUM PXM-LED rotor .
The specs are telling that the display shows the chosen satellite position , unfortunality thats not the case .
It shows the same data as the numbers of the scale on the rotor housing , but still useable by the accuracy of 0.1º .
The circuitboard was provided with a east an a west button which I desoldered , also the two leds (red and green) to made it possible to attach the circuitboard in the back of the V-Box .
The counter display has a flatcable long enough to place the display behind the red screen in front of the V-Box and placed the leds left and right near the display .
Made two new push buttons on top in the cover .
They allow me to make a quickly E/W move to see improvement of the signal but does not have influence on the other positions .
