  • Patent number: 4215410
    Abstract: An open loop servo controller for controlling motors which drive a solar energy utilizing device about its azimuth and altitude axis to track the sun. The controller has a central processor and elements for inputting data corresponding with the present day of the year, the hour of the day, the minute of the hour and with the latitude and longitude of the device installation. Memories store program data, and tables of data corresponding with the declination of the sun on any day and of other mathematical functions. The processor uses the data to calculate the azimuth and altitude angles of the sun itself within every minute of the day and causes signals to be produced which result in motor controllers causing the motors to turn the device through azimuth and altitude axes angles corresponding with the calculated angles.
