ARS-USB_YAESU

195,00€ – 250,00€ VAT not included

This is a special version based on the ARS-USB that was re-designed to be used as a rotor controller or replacement for a Yaesu Control Unit (or similar rotators) that operates 24Vdc

It includes the same features as the standard ARS-USB adding some extra as:

  • Simple and easy calibration at any rotor position in few steps.
  • Soft start and stop via a PWM. It allows to have a soft starting/stopping ramp.
  • It detects if the potentiometer is out of range and will prevent any accidental problem with the antenna coax. Any problem with the potentiometer or cables are detected inmediately
  • If the motor is jammed by any reason, an alarm will be displayed and the appointment will stop. The user will be noticed.

All those watch-dog systems (and some more options) will prevent to generate a problem if the potentiometer is damaged by any cause (any wire broken, moisture, a wrong cable connection, etc).  

This model include a 24Vdc DC-DC module which is necessary for Yaesu motors (G800, G1000, G2800 or new G450DC)

Description

The ARS-USB_YAESU is a special version based on the ARS-USB that can be used as a replacement or controller for any rotor that operates 24Vdc. Some Yaesu models suported are:

  • G800S, G800SA, G800DXA, G800SDX
  • G1000A, G1000SA, G1000S, G1000DXA, G1000SDX, G1000DXC
  • G2800DXA, G2800DXC
  • or the new G450ADC

But it can be used with any motor that works in DC and uses a potentiometer (for instance Emotator 1200). It includes a 5 pin connector for simple wiring with any Yaesu motor. The ARS-USB_YAESU  can be connected to the computer via USB and it’s detected as a serial port, so any program will be able to control it via this serial port. Moreover it emulates a Yaesu GS232A interface; this fact has the advantage that any program that supports a GS232A will support directly the ARS-USB_YAESU. A program to guide during the setup and calibration is included: ARSVCOM (ARSconf).The calibration of a unit is very simple and includes a step by step guide. Also it allows controlling the rotor with a graphical and friendly user interface. It’s a nice option when you want to control the antenna local or remotely via Internet. A tool for upgrade the firmware of the ARS-USB is included: Teleloader. With this software, you will upload new releases of the ARS-USB_Yaesu firmware.

There is an optional pigtail cable that can be ordered to mate with existing Yaesu cable. Yaesu (white plastic) 6 pin connector for Yaesu (A, SA and DXA controllers)
 
There is also an optional PCB (POT2-3) that will adjust the input level of rotors that use only 2 wires (current) to the voltage input required by the ARS-USB. This is the case of the G450ADC.

All the software can be downloaded from this link:

Therefore you no longer need to order the CD-ROM.

  • Elevation inclinometer
    [:es]

    Este inclinómetro permite fabricarse un motor para elevación a partir de por ejemplo un actuador.

    El inclinómetro proporciona un retorno muy fiable que podrá ser empleado por el ARS-USB (o interfaces similares) para conocer la posición en elevación de las antenas. También puede ser empleado para usarse con un motor standard de elevación, empleando el inclinómetro como la referencia por el ARS-USB de la posición.

    Sus excelentes características técnicas a un precio razonable, es una solucíon ideal para aplicaciones donde requieran un sistema de apuntamiento fiable.

    This inclinometer is a valuable option for elevation motors.

    It allows manufacturing an elevation motor from such an actuator (TV). The inclinometer provides a very reliable feedback return that may be used by the ARS-USB (or similar interfaces) to determine the elevation of the antennas.

    It can also be employed for use with a standard elevation motor, using as reference the inclinometer to the ARS-USB.

    It's excellent technical features at a reasonable price are ideal for applications requiring a reliable targeting solution.
