Default help- CDE H3 rotor + controller


"amdx" wrote in message
...
I bought a rotor and controller at a hamfest.
It is a Cornel Dublier Electronics H3/CD44 Series 2.
The position indicator doesn't move with rotation,
the indicator needle is almost full scale and can be moved
with the calibration adjustment.
I suspect the problem is in the rotor.
I need a description of operation, to try and troubleshoot the unit.
The function of the 8 connections would help.
A schematic would be even better.

Thanks, Mike


Go here and download the manual. It is for a Hy-gain 45 but it should be
the same schematic for the 8 wire rotator. Most of the CDE and Hy-gain
rotators ues the same basic electric design and the mechanical part is
differant .
