Hi Vencenzo,
The Voltage Out adjustment relates only to the output on the DIN connector on the back of the control box. So it would affect a GS232 or LVB (or Green Heron or whatever) computer interface you had plugged in, but not the meters on the main control box or the antenna positions. If you have something connected to it, you will want to get the main box on the 5500 adjusted first and then adjust the Voltage Out so your interface box matches.
As to the meters on the main control box, they should move immediately assuming that the G5500 moves immediately. You might double check by measuring the voltage on the feedback line from the 5500. I'd guess that the mechanical adjustment on the meter itself (a screw on the front of the meter at about the needle's pivot point) is wrong. I have never had to adjust mine, but I would put the antenna at 0 degrees and then adjust the meter so it just touches 0. Then move to 90 or 180 (depending on if you are using flip mode) and adjust the Full Scale Adj pot so that the meter reads correctly on that end.
Good luck and 73,
Burns WB1FJ

Hello,
today I was trying to set the full scale of the Elevation and Azimuth
of my Yaesu G-5500 Control box..
For mistake instead to turn the FULL SCALE ADJ pot I have
Turned the OUT VOLTAGE ADJ one.
Now I am not sure if I have reset it to the right position.
Please anybody can tell me how to see if it is positioned in the right position?
If I need to re set it again can I do it from the shack also with the antennas mounted
Or I need to do it without antennas? If I can do it also with the antenna mounted,
Which is the right procedure or is there a tutorial?
Thanks
Also I do not know if it is normal that when I go to move the elevation from 0°,
I see that the needle does not move strait away but after a couple of seconds that I am pressing
The elevation button.
Is that normal?
Thanks once more
