AALogic Rotator Controllers
AALogic Voice Recognition Modules
AALogic Voice Recognition Modules allow you to do something that seems like it's straight out of science fiction: Control your AALogic DTC-100 with just the sound of your voice. In addition to being able to control the rotator with your voice, the VRM-100 will also provide audible feedback on the current azimuth of the antenna. The VRM-100 will also allow the user to rotate the antenna by simply providing the heading and the DTC-100 will point the antenna. The VRM-100 also requires no internet connection to function. The package comes with the VRM-100, a built in 3-watt speaker, a power adapter, and a cable to interface the VRM-100 with the DTC-100. The VRM-100 requires between 9 and 12 Vdc and can be powered either by the supplied adapter or a 12Vdc supply in the shack. The front panel features a power LED, power switch, speaker grill, and volume knob. The rea panel features an external speaker jack, a 3.5mm jack for the interface cable and a power jack.

AALogic DTC-100 Version 6 Rotator Controllers
AALogic DTC-100 Version 6 Rotator Controllers are compatible with digital pulsed feedback rotators such as the Orion 2800, the Alfa SPID, The HyGain DCU-3 compatible rotators, and the DX Engineering RT4500HD. Not only will the DTC-100-V6 work with rotators that have digital pulsed feedback, it will also work with rotators that utilize resistive sensors to determine the orientation of the rotator, Rotators that utilize resistive sensors include Yaesu's G450/G800/G1000/G2800 Series rotators as well as all HyGain Rotators. The DTC-100-V6 also allows the user to set soft rotational limits for both Yaesu and HyGain rotators that incorporate mechanical limits to help keep the rotator from travelling to the mechanical stop. A full color 5-inch touch screen display fills the front panel of the DTC-100-V6. The DTC-100-V6 supports extensive calibration options when it comes to rotators that don't have 'hard limit' switches and even those that do, the user can set soft limits for stopping the rotator before the hard limit switches are set. Once the rotator type has been selected in the calibration screen, the user can set rotation limits for both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. The configuration of the DTC-100-V6 allows the user to adjust the backlight, the start and stop brake function (needed on HyGain rotators), coast settings, and ramp up and down speeds. These settings allow for control of the rotator as it gets close to the end of its safe rotation, allowing for the rotator to coast to a stop and not jerk to a halt where you want the antenna pointing. Six memories allow the user to set frequently accessed headings to expedite a starting point of the turning the antenna. Memories can also be programmed on an ad hoc basis and not saved to work DX or for some operating event that is outside of the users' normal scope of operation. This allows for flexibility in how the controller is used. The Main operating screen of the DTC-100-V6 provides a graphical representation of where the antenna is facing, saved memories, quick access to the system configuration screen, and controls to manually turn the antenna clockwise and counterclockwise as well as stopping the rotation. The display also shows if the rotator has spun into the overlap zone, and if there is remote control of the DTC-100. The rear panel of the DTC-100-V6 includes an 8-pin terminal block, a 3.5mm TRS jack for an optional RS232TTL adapter, standard IEC-320 connector block, with fuse and power switch. A 6 foot long, 110VAC power cord is included. Also included is the mating connector for the terminal block. If you already have the line to your rotator terminated for the controller that came with your rotator, there are optional cables available for both Yaesu and HyGain rotators that allow the use of cables that are already terminated with the connectors for the vendor supplied rotator controllers and you don't wish to remove the termination to use the DTC-100-V6. Additional Feature and Specifications: • Computer interface for logging programs • Computerized motor control • Auto brake release/engage • Speed ramp up/down for smooth start/stop • Variable coast control • Pinpoint accuracy • Automated calibration for simple installation • Supports pulsed feedback sensors • User ability to set soft limits
