Dual Axes SunTracker with Advanced Options

Finally i came up with the new efficient algorithm for the dual axes sun tracking system. The tracker is menu based , parameters can be set with 6-keys keypad with following functionalities:

1- Single Axis or Dual Axis control settings

2- 12VDC / 24V DC motor (windshield car motors etc) or Linear Actuator (Peak Current 10Amp)

3- PWM based motor controller. The PWM value is selectable from Menu.(0~100% duty cycle)

4- Return East Options (a- On Limit Switch stoppage based or -b- Time based)

5- User Selectable Tracking Delay

6- Load Sequencing management

7- Dark return Time setting

8- Twilight Time settings (after the twilight Dark return Time started)

9- RJ45 connectors for sensors

10- Sensors sensitivity settings

11- Highly efficient tracking Algorithm

12-Drive Off sun position setting

13-Easy menu driven parameters settings

14- Saving Parameters values in EEPROM

15-Compact and easy to install

16-Northern/Southern Hemisphere Compatible

LCD, Keypad and sensor:

I am still adding much more features as it is micro-controller driven..

Modular type:

1- Main Controller (Price Range 30~45 US dollar)

2- PWM DC Motor Controller (10 ~15 US dollar)

3- Sun Tracking sensors (single axis or dual axis) (5~10 US dollar)

4- 20x4 backlight LCD with control circuit ( 12~15 US dollar)

5- six Key keypad (2 US dollar)

6- Optional controller to sensor wiring
