DX Engineering Rotator Control Line Connectors
Available here, individually, are the "remarkable and elegant" 4-pin interlocking weather-sealed rotator control line connectors that have metal bodies to provide RF shielding, as supplied with the DXE-RT4500HD. These DX Engineering Rotator Control Line Connectors are top-of-the-line cable-mount solder connectors that are intended to be used outdoors, for a lifetime of reliable control line termination. Their positive latching, moisture-sealing, quick disconnect features make them ideal to build an extension, pigtail or test cable for your DXE-RT4500HD or controller. They are a perfect match for DX Engineering DXE-CW1812OR Heavy-Duty Spec Rotator Cable, with 5 conductors: 2 x 12 AWG and 2 x 18 AWG plus 1 x 18 AWG shield. Each gender are used to build your own rotator cable assembly extension. Just as with standard power extension cords, use female for the power source end and male for the mating end of the extension, so there is never an exposed pin with voltage present. In this case, use the DXE-LP-20-F female connector on any cable, controller pigtail or the rotator end of an extension that can have a voltage present. Use the DXE-LP-20-M male connector on the controller end of the mating extension cable. DXE-LP-20-F 4-pin female to make a controller pigtail or for the end of a cable assembly that mates with the male rotator pigtail. This connector is supplied with DXE-RT4500HD Heavy Duty Rotators DXE-LP-20-M 4-pin male as supplied on the permanently mounted DXE-RT4500HD Heavy Duty Rotator. Used for the controller end of an extension cable to mate with a controller pigtail. These are the best connectors, to make the best weather-sealed 4-conductor cable assembly, for the best rotator on the market, all from DX Engineering.

Paradan Radio Brake Delay LED Module
Paradan Radio Brake Delay LED Module – an assembly to be installed in a CDE or Hy-Gain Antenna Rotator control box. The Brake Delay and Meter LED board updates your rotor controller and helps protect your rotor from damage due to braking while the antenna is still in motion. Rotor damage may occur if you release the brake before the antenna comes to a complete stop. Then, to repair a broken rotor, it must be taken off the tower, disassembled, damaged parts replaced, and then put back on the tower…a difficult and costly procedure. Installing this Brake Delay circuit will completely eliminate rotor failure to due to damaged gear teeth and brake components. In addition, this package includes a bright LED panel to replace the failure prone incandescent bulb. The package contains two assembled circuit boards: the relay board, and the LED board. They are easily installed within the rotor control box, requiring unsoldering and soldering in a few wires to accessible terminals. Using the rotator is the same as before, except that when the rotate paddle is released and the brake paddle is released, the rotor is allowed time to come to a stop before braking is applied. The delay time is user adjustable from 1sec to 10 sec. When the rotor is ON the meter is brightly illuminated with white LEDs; when the brake is depressed, the meter lights up with red during the delay period. Comes complete with easy-to-follow instructions. Specifications: Delay Relay Board: 2 x 2 in., delay circuit, relay, regulator Power: Taken from Rotator Lamp Feed Connections: Two 6- inch wires to rotor brake switch. Solder pads for brake feed LED Board: 4 x 0.50 in., 3 red LEDs, 4 white LEDs. Connected to Relay Board with 3 wires Weight: 4 oz.
