Hi,
i want build a pan&till system can antenna
i want control it by notebook (am under linux) to have:
90° motion on Y axe
180° motion on X axe,360° would be better but i know is more complicated.
my question is:wich Servos i need? i think the weigh of antenna is arounf 1.5 lb.
i need 2 “C” brackets for till and pan right?
and how can i controll al by software by SSC-32 on linux?
tnks for answer and sorry for these stupid question but am a dummie
For control portion, the SSC-32 can accept both TTL logic level and RS232 level serial input.
The TTL serial is off of a header and the RS232 is interfaced through the DB9.
Most computers should have a RS232 port out of a DB9 (unless you have a thin notebook and etc…).
All you have to do is use a COM program in Linux (it’s been a while for me with Linux, but there should be a plethora of com programs, midnight commander comes to mind).
And just make sure you send a string with correct syntax into the SSC-32 for control.
Refer to the SSC-32 manual for the syntax, it’s really simple:
thanks
