The relays in the ST-4 should be able to run any drive corrector since
they have normally open and normally closed contacts for each of the four
directions. Other than knowing what type of contact is required for
each direction, no special electronic knowledge should be required. All
that is needed is to duplicate the function of the switches in the hand
controller.
