NOTE . On the Configura�on page, there is also a checkbox that establishes
if the le� is le�, or the le� is right, regarding the movements when the
bu�ons are pressed. You might want to change its status, if you prefer a
par�cular behavior over the other.
Star�ng with firmware version 02117, there is the code 2313< that changes
the sense of rota�on if it is done using the bu�ons �� , without the need
to access the Configura�on page.
If the direc�on for the intervals above needs to be changed to be more
natural, you can use
2313< code as well.
If you no�ce that instead a 90° rota�on, MECHA seems to rotate more or
less, the cause could be a wrong se�ng regarding the type of the rotator
you have.
Please use the following codes to specify the type of rotator, or set the
rotator on
Configura�on page.
• 23131< set E1 as the preferred rotator
• 23132< set E2 as the preferred rotator
• 23121< set P1 as the preferred rotator
The code should match with the actual rotator connected for each MECHA,
and needs to be entered pressing the bu�ons of the MECHA the rotator is
connected to.
However, if you are in doubt about the type of rotator, you can try each
code, then launch a 90° rota�on, and if it is indeed 90°, then the rotator is
correctly set.
Alterna�vely, you can contact the dealer or mecha@nodalninja.com for
more info or help in iden�fying the type of rotator you have.
Considering the script:
SL,0x12,45x12,-45x12,N,Z
what needs to be changed, some�mes, in real situa�ons:
instead of a single Zenith, more Zeniths may be needed, say, for flare
reasons, in which case Z can be replaced with Zx2, for example, which will
produce 2 Zeniths 180° apart (360°/2):
SL,0x12,45x12,-45x12,N,Zx2
