Hi, great instructions! I have followed this to the letter and double-checked that it is exactly as it showed here, but my rotator doesn't move when I connect to it via USB. I hear the relay clicking but no motor movement. Can You please give an idea what can be wrong here?

[@M7BVV-Phil]

Hay Stu, shack looking great! SM three looks fantastic, Still waiting on my SM cap, but the mug gets well used, hi. I'm sure the cap will arrive at some point in time. all the best 73 mate.

Very good helpful video Stu thanks for sharing

[@VK5IR]

I put one in my G450A as well. Photos on my QRZ page.

[@DXCommanderHQ]

Been waiting for this! LOL

[@G5STU]

Look forward to seeing yours in place :)

[@DXCommanderHQ]

OK, got it. Yellow to brown, white to black, red to blue, purple to red.. Or was it the other way around! LOL

[@G5STU]

yep, I was like that, be easier if the colours matched I suppose.

Hi Stu, I have the ERC installed in my Hy-Gain T2X tailtwister control box. Works great.The black and red wire gets the position info from the rotator. I'm using PSTRotatorAz to interface with N3FJP, but don't like you need to install Microsoft Edge Runtime before the program will run. 73 WJ3U

[@G5STU]

Hey Don, only version 1 required that, Version 2 doesn't, nor will Version 3, I would hold out for V3 though, it should be a good one!

[@DonDegidio]

@@G5STU Stu, I have ERC SMD USB V4, but bought it about 4 years ago and my board looks a little different from yours. WJ3U

[@danielblake704]

Tnx for posting this video it’s very helpful indeed the only difference is I don’t have the Thick green wire only thin yellow and and thin but by the process of elimination I figured it out 😊

[@dutchswlspain1880]

Thanks this board i will buy 73's

[@Professzore]

Hanging nowhere-to-go threads of wire... Ouch... Terrible. You're an engineer. Use ferrules.

[@G5STU]

It's been cleaned since, that was just a test run, but hey they don't call us amateurs for nothing :)

[@Hank_W6IR]

If anyone stateside wants to get an ERC board drop me an email. I have 2 available.
