Auto Rotate

[K2MIT]

Ok, I think I am one step away and I appreciate all of your support.

Besides your last step there was one other issue. In the enclosed screen shot, I used your call sign and when I tabbed out, it filled your name and QTH properly in the log (I think I had QTH and QRZ user information filled in before and it was not populating the QTH so it could not figure out azimuth; I am now just using QRZ and the azimuth is properly calculated).

So now in the Rotor program, you can see your call with a 51 degree azimuth which is correct. The antenna is currently pointed at 239 degrees and it didn't rotate. If I click on the greyed out box with your call sign that says, "DL2RUM: 51 degrees" it will rotate to 51 degrees. So the DL2RUMNG program is communicating with the Rotor program; it is just that Rotor is not moving automatically.

I don't see a checkbox like other programs, "Auto rotate." What am I doing incorrectly? I can't attach the screenshot of the 3 screens as its 13MB and the limit is 5MB.

Here is the screenshot, file sized reduced.

Your rotor control port is closed in the screen shot.

Sorry, I posted the wrong image. Here is the same with the port open. Tabbing with a call (yours) fills in your information in the main log, shows the map and transmit 51 degrees to rotator but no autorotate. That is my issue. It will manually rotate if I click on the grey tab with your call or enter 51 into the box and click "Turn." It is at 239 degrees so 51 degrees should induce a move. I have the

Sorry for posting the wrong image. Had several old files. I hope this helps.

Thanks again for your help. I hope there is not something glaringly not set but I can't find it.

Hi,

Any update since I posted the corrected image that shows the port open and your call in the rotor app? Manual turning works great but it doesn’t auto-rotate from Rumlogng after entering a call and tabbing out of the call field.

Communication between Rumlogng and Rotor is confirmed.

Thank you.
