AnTrack - Pro

Best Antenna Controller for Astronomy, Radio Astronomy, EME and Deep Search communications, introduce many new functionalities, power full processor and color 4" TFT Touch screen, GPS, Web Server, NTP Stratum 1 server, NTP Client, WiFi access, Tilt correction table, separate Encoder hub allow you up to 1.2km antenna distance reading the encoders over a twisted pair cable and much more!!!

The  AnTrack-Pro was presented during the 20th
EME Conference in Trenton NJ. 09 to 11 August 2024
As a DIY project the Antrack-Pro is available based on
Pre-DIY kit, this kit will include:

PCB’s (almost popullated)
The main MCU (ESP32) with the latest FW uploaded
The auxiliary MCU for the encoder hub with the FW uploaded
2 encoder interfaces populated for HH12, HH12 Inclinometer, MAB25/28, ETS25 05SER
PCB's for encoder interfaces for US Digital and Posital encoders are included but not populated

The DIY pre-kit cost of
95.00 USD+shipping


Having the DIY pre-kit you will need to buy some additional parts in eBay, Aliexpress or in your local electronic store of your preference:

- 4inch LCD touch screen 480x320 w/resistive touch screen using a ST7796S
- uBlox M8N GPS Module w/GPS antenna
- W5500 Ethernet module (optional)
- 2 ITB-2 H bridges based on the BTS7960B
- 2 encoders interface (PCBs w/pre-kit included, parts non populated, you will populate according to your encoders)

The new advance algorithms and new HW platforms make the Antrack-Pro the most robust antenna controller for just a fraction of the price compare with other solutions, the modular interface allow you to include any kind of absolute encoders

The original intetion was to provide a DIY-prekit ONLY but some people request a fully populated systems with all the options included, in that case (specially for those with no building capacity) I can offer the Antrack-Pro ready to use unBoxed for 450.00 USD + shipping, additionally existing plans to have a limited stock of touch screens and IBT-2 bridges.
Batch 01 is Soldout, Batch 02 will be available from 01.11.2024, including some extre parts
Have a look in "Parts I Can Supply" to see and order all you need to complete your kit
