Hi Yann. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it and let you know. But what bugs me is that, the very first time I did the Ticks Determination it was working fine. It did the first full 360° CW cycle a

Hi Dan Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! It is a Servo Controller II. Reviewing your instructions: Second step: “uncheck both of the “Man” checkboxes”. To do so one must check the “Auto” checkboxes
