Jomar Gear Door sequencer
I need to fit a gear door sequencer to my current building project.
I intend to use air retracts (Robart) & servo driven doors & have noticed the Jomar sequencer on the Tower website.

Has anyone had any experience with one of these good or bad? [&o]
I previously use an Ace Servo Master unit on another model but it didn't last long at all. - John.

RE: Jomar Gear Door sequencer
I have used them all and the Jomar is OK. The issue I have with it is that the servo throw is preprogrammed and it doesn't seem to match the throw of the valves very well. Having said this, you can play with the position of the servo arm and eventually match the throw of the valve. I find if I start at 90 degrees and end up with the arm pointed at the valve to cut down a bit on the total throw, that works.
Give a choice, I prefer the JMP sequencer. The throws match the valves better and I like the fact that there is a positive cycling of the doors when I turn the unit on. Tom Cook is very easy to deal with too. I have used his sequencer extensively without a single issue.

Dude - I actually have one NEW IN PLASTIC!! I think I've had it for like 8 years. It is a nice device but I think it is a bit outdated. Having said that, it does work as advertised. But like pilott28 stated, you will probably need to "mess" with the linkage a bit...

Hello, What size servo's is everyone using on there doors??? Thanks
Thanks for the info guys, the travel mis match does not worry me, I'm old enough to remember the linkage tricks from when radios did not have travel adjust! [&o] - John.
