Re: ATU-10: programming the PIC16F1454?
Hi Tony,
I can't understand your comment re the wire to supply the voltage to the programmer. All you need are the five connections from the PICkit 3 to the five points (J2) on the ATU-10 PCB. You

Re: ATU-10: programming the PIC16F1454?
Dear Robbie,
Thank you for the comments!
My previous attempts were made WITHOUT the wire that would supply the voltage from the programmer, so the chip was powered with 3,3 volts throughout.

Re: ATU-10: programming the PIC16F1454?
Tony, connections to the ATU-10 PCB were 1 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3, 4 to 4 and 5 to 5. There's a 6 on the PICkit units but it isn't used here. Pin 1 on the ATU-10 PCB is marked with a 1 and is also a

Hello!
Forgot to ask in the first message:

It is only recognised by its' ID if I choose the Device Family -> Midrange -> 1,8v MinII

Re: ATU-10: programming the PIC16F1454?
Dear Robbie,
I'm about to add a wire from the programmer's pad #2 to VDD pin of the PIC16F1454 chip, may be - temporarily - removing the LDO stab (to avoid possible damage by reverse voltage).

Re: ATU-10: programming the PIC16F1454?
Tony, I used MPLAB with the PICkit 3, but you have to make sure it's set for 3V3 in the Advanced menu - the app's default is 5V so it would always fail the programming sequence.

ATU-10: programming the PIC16F1454?

Thank you both for this additional info. Mine does have yellow relays. I'll cautiously test running TX through it when powered off, and see how the radio responds (I'm using an antenna that is

Re: Bypass for ATU-100 with only one button?
Yes, if the relay is non-latched type (usually yellow in colour), it will
be reset to off stage when no power is applied. Mine version is ATU-10, it
uses latched type (white in colour). It keeps in

Re: Bypass for ATU-100 with only one button?
The ATU-100 has non-latching relays. It should reset to a pass through
configuration when off but I haven¡¯t tested mine.
The bypass switch is momentary contact. The display shows when you are

Re: ATU100 with memory
There are 256 bytes of EEPROM. You would need to have a frequency counter
and make a lookup table. It¡¯s not much room.
