If any of these items are missing or appear to
be damaged, save the carton and packing ma-
terial and notify the shipping company (or
dealer, if purchased directly at his shop).
Before proceeding with installation, confirm
that the AC voltage label on the rear of the
Controller matches your local line voltage: ei-
ther “117V” for 110 to 120 VAC, or “220” for
220 to 240 VAC. If the labeled voltage range
does not match, return the controller to the
dealer from whom you purchased it (different
power transformers are installed for the differ-
ent voltage ranges).
Note that cable is not included with the rotator,
as the length must be determined case-by-case.
Contact your Yaesu dealer to obtain the length
of cable your installation requires. For runs of
over 100 feet, use #18 AWG instead of #20
AWG.
