AntennaPilot

Controller

The controller shows antenna position, changes movement speed and returns the device to Home with one button.

Left/right rotation is controlled by moving the joystick in the required direction.

The device supports three speeds per direction: 1, 3 and 5 deg/s or 1, 5 and 10 deg/s depending on the Speed switch, version and firmware. Vertical movement uses 1, 3 and 6 deg/s.

Press and hold the joystick for about 3 seconds to enter settings.
