[Dxbase] Green Heron Engineering Rotor Control and DXbase2007

Try these settings, *exactly* as shown, not including the colon:
Rotor Type: HYG-DCU1
Initialize: AP1#;AM1;
Turn Rotor: (leave blank)
Stop Rotor: ; (that is, just a semi-colon)
Select the "Character" radio button
Check the "Use Leading zeros in degrees" box.
Un-check "Use Delay."
Rotor Offset: Plus
Bump adjustment I have set to 5 degrees
Port config depends on your setup. Mine is 4800 N-8-1.
