panel of the FT-950.
1. Press and hold in the
[
ENT

button (one of the
[

]
key switches) for one second. The Frequency Display
area will change over to the “Rotator Control” con-
figuration.
2. Press either the
[
3.5
(

)]
button or the
[
7

button to
rotate the antenna. Pressing the
[
3.5
(

)]
button will
cause rotation to the left (counter-clockwise) by two
degree steps, while pressing the
[
7
(
3
)]
button will cause
rotation to the right (clockwise) by two degree steps.
3. Press the
[
14
(

)]
button or the
[
18
(

)]
button to con-
trol the speed of rotation. Pressing the
[
14
(

button
will cause slower rotation, while pressing the
[
18

button will speed up rotation. Usually, you will be us-
ing the “100%” speed setting.
When you are through exercising rotator control, press the
[
ENT
]
button momentarily. The Frequency Display will
return to the main display field.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Set the starting point to match your rotator con-
trol indicator needle via the Menu item “011
DISP RTR STU”. The default setting is zero
(north). If your controller starting point is south,
the Menu item “011 DISP RTR STU” must be
set to “180”. If not set properly the FT-950
display will not show the correct direction.
When the rotator control indicator needle does
not indicate the precise antenna direction, cali-
brate the indicator needle precisely to the an-
tenna direction via the Menu item “012 DISP
RTR ADJ”.
