Hello,
I just registered and this is my first post. I have recently embarked on a project to mfgr a portable solar tracker to use when we go camping. I purchased and assembled an MTM solar tracker board and basically have everything working (in its "test" form).
Witness this post... I am just a whole lot better with mechanical stuff than I am electronics.
(You can view the entire project by clicking here)
Basically what I would like to add is a SPDT momentary switch, that if I push to the left, will cause the shaft to rotate east and if pushed to the right will cause the shaft to rotate to the west. My idea is to 'fake' the input of the photo sensors.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
