linear actuator
Long time since I've posted but I need some help.
I have a HTS (Houston Tracking System) linear actuator off of a C-ban satallite dish. It has 6 wires coming out of it; 2 large (~16 ga.) [red and white] and 4 smaller wires [od green, green, yellow and bare] I'm pretty sure that the red and white are the power leads and the others are sensor wires. I also think that it is 24 volts dc, here is where I have been having problems; I can get the actuator to move in only one direction no matter which wires I use for positive and negitive. Is there a couple of the other wires that need to be dealt with in order to make this motor turn in the oppsite direction? Any help would be appreciated. Mike |
