ERC Vsn 4 USB Rotor Interface to Raspberry Pi
Ron K2RAS
Member ✭✭
I have a Yaesu G-450A rotor and ERC USB Interface. My 6500 and NodeRED (on a Pi4) are running at a remote site. I could simply add a PC running PSTRotator at the remote site, but my preference is to install some program on the remote Pi and have it communicate to NodeRED. Can this be done, or am better off just adding the PC?
Thanks, Ron K2RAS

It can be done. You can take my rotor flow and substitute the UDP nodes for a USB request node (in & out). Then edit the commands to match your rotor's protocol.
Give it a shot and let me know if you run into issues.
