Automatic Satellite Tracking

Track satellites automatically

The Chelegance JSatTrack-100 is a compact portable azimuth/elevation rotator designed to automatically point a suitable antenna at passing LEO and amateur-radio satellites.

Mount the rotator on a suitable tripod using its Ø16 mm centre shaft, secure an antenna with an 18–24 mm square boom in the side clamp, connect a 12–24 V DC supply and control the system over WiFi or serial from compatible satellite-tracking software.

AZIMUTH
360° continuous
Full continuous azimuth rotation for following complete satellite passes.
ELEVATION
0–90°
Tracks from the horizon through overhead satellite passes.
ANTENNA LOAD
Up to 8 kg
Side-mounted antenna capacity, with balancing recommended above 3 kg.
PORTABLE
2 kg
Compact enough for portable satellite stations as well as fixed operating positions.
AZ/EL TRACKING

Follow an entire satellite pass

The JSatTrack-100 provides continuous 0–360° azimuth rotation together with 0–90° elevation movement, allowing a directional antenna to follow satellites across the visible sky.

Variable-speed movement provides controlled tracking, while the power-off self-locking mechanism helps the rotator hold its position when power is removed.

SOFTWARE CONTROL

Look4Sat, GS-232B and EasyCom

The rotator communicates over WiFi or its 115,200 bps serial interface and supports GS-232B, EasyCom I and EasyCom II protocols. A dedicated mode is also provided for the Look4Sat Android satellite-tracking application.

WiFi Wireless control from compatible tracking applications.
GS-232B Compatibility with software supporting the widely used rotator protocol.
EasyCom I & II Additional protocol support for compatible satellite software.
Look4Sat Dedicated control mode for the Android satellite-tracking app.
FIELD READY

Built around a portable satellite station

Weighing approximately 2 kg, the JSatTrack-100 can be carried to portable operating locations and fitted to a suitable tripod or support using the Ø16 mm centre shaft.

Antenna mounting and balance

The JSatTrack-100 is specified for side-mounted antennas weighing up to 8 kg. We recommend balancing antennas weighing more than 3 kg to reduce the risk of instability or tipping.

The antenna boom must be compatible with the rotator's 18–24 mm square-boom clamp. Check the antenna's mechanical dimensions and balance before installation.

POWER

12–24 V DC

Power consumption is rated at a maximum of 15 W. DC input is through a 5.5 × 2.5 mm connector, making the unit suitable for an appropriately rated station PSU or portable battery system.

ENVIRONMENT

IP64 rated

Designed for indoor or outdoor operation, with an operating temperature range of −20 to +65 °C and specified humidity below 90% RH.

Outdoor use IP64 provides protection against splashing water, but it is advised against operation in extreme weather including heavy rain, strong winds and thunderstorms.

Basic setup

A typical installation follows four straightforward steps.

01
Mount the rotator Fit the Ø16 mm centre shaft into a suitable tripod or support.
02
Fit the antenna Clamp a compatible 18–24 mm square antenna boom into the side mount.
03
Orient north Position the rotator so the marked “N” reference points towards north.
04
Connect and track Apply 12–24 V DC power and connect compatible tracking software over WiFi or serial.

At-a-glance status indication

A built-in tri-colour status light and audible buzzer provide operating feedback for functions including standby, initialisation, tracking and connection status.
