I have been working on an antenna tracking system using a very heavy duty CCTV
pan and tilt head which uses large stepper motors. I have built a new control
system that accepts Yaesu serial data commands from SatPC32 and drives the
stepper motors to the correct position. The Yaesu protocol only works in whole
degrees. Does anyone know of a serial protocol that allows fractional degree
or minute data? I know our application doesn't need it but I would like to
test the hardware to it's limit!
