Description

Firmware that emulates a Yaesu GS-232A rotor controller. Drives a 3-phase motor as a stepper via H-bride drivers.

Quality of emulation is not yet verified, but the command interface works via hamlib. Supports rotation to specific azimuth, fetching current position and speed control.

Tested with: rotctld -m 601 -r /dev/ttyACM0 -s 9600

Lacks some work for supporting the commands related to elevation.

Build instructions

Build: platformio run
Upload: platformio run -t upload

PlatformIO will handle all dependencies.

Future might bring
