Hi-Z Receiving Array Shack Switch Using an OLED Display

2. Jumpstart, or "Real Hams Don't read manuals"

What's in the box: Controller with display, knob, a terminal strip on the rear, a rear

Mini B USB input connector, and a copy of this manual.

You may; as a quick way to try this controller, simply supply it with power from a Cell

phone charger or cell phone backup battery or any wall type USB supply. The cable to

use is a USB A to USB Mini B cable. This cable is typical of the ones used in many

aftermarket devices.

Assuming you have powered the controller in a few seconds you should see an

initial screen saying Hi-Z Shack Switch 2 and the software version presently installed.

After a brief moment of this the display will switch to our pre-programmed setting for a

Hi-Z 4-8 Pro array. Notice as you rotate the knob the direction indication will change

through all 8 of the directions available with the 4-8 Pro array. If you are watching the

display for 15 minutes without making any selection the display will be reduced to a

single dot that jumps around the screen like a screen saver. Turning the direction

control will restore the screen to normal.

Press in on the direction knob and you will see the screen change to a set of

directories like "Set Antenna Type" or "Dir or Angle" and more. These directories are for

setting up the controller for all of its programmable functions. For the moment select

"Set Antenna Type" by rotating the direction knob. Depress the knob again and as

initialized by Hi-Z you will see "4-8Pro". Rotate the knob and you will see the Hi-Z

preprogrammed names of all the current Hi-Z arrays. You can select your array type

now or leave it at the "4-8 Pro" setting. You select your array by depressing the button

again after you have rotated the knob to your array type. The screen will then go back

to the normal direction control display. The display will also time out and go back on its

own from the programming directories if you wait too long to depress or select anything.

Disconnect the USB power after the initial indoctrination of the controls.

Besides the 5 Volts the controller gets from the USB power, you will need to supply

11 to 14 Volts DC from your shack supply or the same supply that runs the Hi-Z Array.

This supply's minus or ground must be connected to the array ground. Either its

feedline ground or a separate ground leading to the array. This is necessary because

the HIZ-SS2 shack switch has an optically isolated division between its internal
