    Titanium Satellite ASC1 Well it did it again!

    Does your system have East and West mechanical limit switches that de-energize the motor prior to the end of travel or binding? If so, experiment and not set East or West Soft Limits in the ASC1. In a properly configured system, there is no need for soft limits to be set. I think that it is just...

    Actuator Miscounts

    Drifts can be common. They happen for a variety of reasons and can be very difficult to track down. Especially when you have more than one cause. This is exactly why there is a "shift" function on a VBox or ASC1. One of the biggest problems I had was having too much of a load on the dish motor...

    Sensor for Von Weise (Reed Switch)

    I was thinking it was one of those units when I saw where the switch was mounted. I have used a simple glass reed switch called a "Flex 14" from Digi-Key and built several sensors for different magnet wheels. The larger reed in this picture is the Flex 14. I use that switch and a 10 magnet...

    Chaparal Corrotor ii Wideband Skew Position

    I have a 12 footer Unimesh antenna with a Chaparal Corrotor II Wideband which I move my HH ajak motor with an ASC1. My Zenith satellite is at 65W (located in Puerto Rico). I am having problems optimizing the skew at that position because the elevation and size of antena makes it unreachable. Do...

    Lubricating a HH Cband Ajak mount

    How often is it recommended to lubricate the halfmoon shaft of an ajak cband mount? and what is the best way to do it without taking it all apart. I had taken it all apart and greased it last year but recently my titanium ASC1 is not able to move the dish on the lower side of the arc without...

    DX Antenna DSB-400 Positioner

    Another ASC1 fan here. So easy to use and it has never failed me. Has no problem powering my Ajak H180 to move around a solid commercial dish attached to it. From an aesthetic perspective it also looks and feels really cool, like a rugged piece of commercial grade equipment. A perfect companion...

    Looking for PDF Copies of Birdview Satellite AP-2028 Solid Aluminum Dish Manuals

    Difficult to post using questions and comments from a flat file (PDF). I reformatted your PDF to a more forum friendly format to reply, using the quote function to compose. A simple addition of a short 8-12" linear actuator on a bracket controlling the declination setting could provide the...

    AJAK- Pushing the envelope

    I have not had a counting issue for a long time now. The second to the last firmware update for the ASC1 corrected a counting issue that some folks had including me. The AJAK could be a little noisy for my high resolution sensors, but locating the sensor wires away from the motor really helped...

    AJAK- Pushing the envelope

    A quick check at dishpointer and you can cover approx 140°. This explains the way your limit switches are bent ;) So you just installed a high resolution sensor in your AJAK and if we do the math 20 counts per degree times 140 degrees is 2800 counts. :) The VBox can't help you. :( max 2000...

    Help to ID this BUD Manufacturer and f/d ratio

    Hopefully I can finish up the installation this weekend. I now have an Ajak Super Tracker from Magic Static that I want to try with the ASC1 from Titanium. Great Stuff! Takes your hobby up another notch

    AJAK- Pushing the envelope

    With all the AJAK activity lately, (Vintagesports & Greg Mueller) I have renewed my interest in the sensors. Going thru all my sensors lately I came across a 16 magnet wheel I had built before I discovered how AJAK did the double counting of the 5 magnets. So double counting a 10 magnet wheel...

    Help to ID this BUD Manufacturer and f/d ratio

    Magic Static, I visited the website link above and could not find the mount using the search. I guess they have sold it. But, I have purchased several of Titanium's products including the ASC1, a C/KU combo and OHR sensor adapter so maybe he could strike me a deal on this mount. Titanium are...

    OHR Adapter

    I purchased a Titanium ASC1 and an OHR adapter. Now I do not know what the OHR adapter would do for me. I have an Ajak HH motor with Reed switch. Do I need it if I have a reed switch?

    I want to win the asc1 and Servo Polarity Motor. If I win, then asc1 will be turning 1.8m Channel Master dish (yellow-squared on the picture) via Ajak Patriot mover (I am working on it now). And Servo motor ....... will think about proper use of it later :)

    Best C-Band conical scalar rings for Channel Master offset dish?

    Paul, Stop your foolishness. Let's all remember why this thread continues. You are a liar and obviously thrive on drama! I can deal with your unprofessional behavior and lies about my products, but your continued personal attacks on forum members and myself are pathetic. Unsure what Ponny told...

    Best C-Band conical scalar rings for Channel Master offset dish?

    I'm sorry, I told in the beginning that english is not my native language. I speak five languages fairly fluently and english is merely one of those five. So please understand that when you use more figurative ways of speech this can be easily misunderstood by someone whose mother tongue is not...

    Best C-Band conical scalar rings for Channel Master offset dish?

    I am unable to say what issue Rainier had with the firmware, which he had extensively tested and approved prior to its release a year earlier. As he never replied to our follow-up inquiry to this post, I suppose we will never know. There is no reason to post any statement on our site as the...

    Dear Brian, Thanks for putting this whole conversation truthfully online. I fail to understand exactly what goal it exactly has, but I do confirm that what you posted is entirely correct and most likely complete. But what is to be learned from this exactly? I told you that I felt very...

    Again such a presumptious response by someone who wants to fight a battle without any real knowledgeor cause. As you may see at the end of your third link parallel to what happened on the satelliteguys.us site a private email conversation has taken place of which you can't even have any...

    Best C-Band conical scalar rings for Channel Master offset dish?

    There's no drama involved, Brian, my objection against your way of speaking is that you seemed to think that as a professional I have no right to mention complaints that my readers made to me about your products. Of course I may report the things people write to me about. Besides I mentioned...

    AJAK and ASC1 noise

    I keep running a few tics off from time to time and after speaking with Brian I know its because of the noise from the motor. Where do I need to install the 50v capacitor? Brian also talked about moving the board around but I have no idea where else I could put it. Thanks

    Titanium ASC1 Latest Update

    I am sorry, but your statement is not correct. There are almost two thousand ASC1 customers using with actuators manufactured by Venture, Von Weise, SuperJack, AJAK, Powermax. These customers are not reporting problems with counting error. You say the problem is with ALL hardware, it is not...
