Home made diseqc positioner

[suedschwede]

i dont understand "buttered" ?

Google Translator says "Buttered" should actually "only an Enigma2 device may be turned on when the DISH is moved"

 

[dreambox1959]

does it is the AX-HD51 is the diseqc master ?
i read your posts on DXTV Forum :
power reduce for lnb changer. etc ..

 

[ozumo]

The LNB changer is a Technirotor which is a DiSEqC 1.2 motor? It should work directly from the dreambox1959 positioner with no extra V-Box

 

[dreambox1959]

ozumo
no , suedschwede has build a changer where there is only motor , limit switch and reed switch no board with microprocessor .

for those who need more than two jacks i have thought of an additional card to add to my basic positioner.

 

[dreambox1959]

hello to those who followed me in the realization of the positioner (JPCPOSI).
-I have optimized the transfer of EEPROM data from a PC.
-I have created a PC software for reading / modifying / saving data.
-I improved the management of DISEQC orders.
tell me where you are in your construction.

If you want, I have a Chaparral Corotor II in very good conditions, used for just few months well protected against rain.

Hi,
yes, please, your positioner.
I know you're just a hobbyist, but you have already built a positioner for the guys from this forum.
I have everything - actuators, corotor and channel master 240. I'm not in a hurry. Thank you.

hi dan!
i ll send you a positionner , so inside the eeprom memory i ll put 2000 as index for every sat cause i don t have any datas for your mount !
when you use it for the first time select a sat by name and move the dish for the right place.
send me some pictures of your mount .

[dreambox1959]

i still have a positioner 90% builded . + some printed board .
does someone need it ?

 

[suedschwede]

Hello dreambox1959,

I am currently still looking for a mounting frame for the display, so my further construction of the positioner has come to a standstill. Do you still have sources for the mounting frame?

best regards
suedschwede

 

[dreambox1959]

two ways for a mounting frame :
cut yourself in a plastic box front face (or thin aluminium)
or buy a superb front face from schaeffer . that s what i do.

for anyone who had my "JPCposi" I had made improvements and fixed errors in the firmware so buy a USBASP programmer (less than 10 euros) and make a programmer cable

 

[Captain Jack]

Hi JP, does this apply to the firmware you did for me?

how much?.

also can i move my dish manually by pressing button on the front to move my dish rather than not using disqec signals.

OF COURSE YOU CAN MOVE THE dish with the front panel keypad and remote control
