Mini Tiouner Express for Minitione Software V0.9beta

  • Here I want to share the information to you from Charles G4GUO how to use the Mini Tiouner Express HW with Jean-Pierres beta release V0.9:

    Firstly you need to connect a 10k resistor from pin 29 of the FTDI USB controller chip to ground. Then using FT_Prog (from the FTDI website) you need to change the product descriptor string from Minitiouner-Express to USB <-> NIM Tuner
    Then the Minitiouner software will think it is talking to a BATC tuner.
    I think he will do the change in his final release.

    Done this in the evening. It is a bit tricky you need good SMT expierence..or you wait for the implementation of JP to the final V0.9. See this post as a backup if there will be no implementation for Mini Tiouner Express HW to the final version..:thumbup::)
