Is your bud motorized? You found a diseqc motor that works with big dishes? Because they need bigger motors then can be powered by the card, they use a different setup. A Actuator that runs on 36v and is told to move one way or the other and then pulses are counted and then the motor is told to

I've seen those boxes advertised but hadn't looked at them close yet. Seen any diy projects for those? designing/building the hardware is easy, but I'm not much of a programmer. That vbox is what the electronics part of the small dish rotors are. I was thinking of building around an Atmel chip.

[vdr] rotor

2010-06-24 Thread Mike Booth
the rotor plugin ( or at least version 1.4mh) can control one rotor per card. For c-band you need a vbox to translate the diseqc commands and to provide the 36 volts to drive the actuator. Thats how I do it. costs about $40 (australian). Piece of cake. Or am I missing something? Mike
