charged with its attached charger, the charger has the highest output voltage of 8.4VDC. mAT-10
uses little power while tuning, when the equipment is full of electricity, it can work for a long time.
These 10440 lithium batteries do not have a protective circuit, and the protection function is
completed by tuner.
Important Note: Before the first use or after the battery is replaced, the tuner must be
charged by the charger to activate the internal protection circuit before it can be used.

CONTROL CABLE mAT-CY

The mAT-10's control cable mAT-CY provides control signals between FT-817/818 and the tuner.
When the mAT-10 is turned on, it will automatically detect whether it is connected to YAESU
FT-817/818 through the control cable. If so, the software matching FT-817/818 will be invoked to
start running. If it is not connected to FT-817/818, the general tuner software will be tuned to run.
Whether the tuner matches FT-817/818 or not can be achieved without additional manual
operation.
The supplied transceiver control cable is 50 centimeters long. If it is desired that the mAT-10 is
positioned farther from the transceiver than this cable length allows, a custom cable will need to
be constructed. This can be accomplished in two ways: Cut the supplied cable and solder a jumper
wire between all the connections, or purchase new connectors and cable to construct a custom
length control cable from scratch.

INSTALLATION

The mAT-10 tuner is designed for indoor operation only, it is not water resistant. If you use it
outdoors (Field Day, for example), you must protect it from the rain. Always turn your transceiver
off before plugging or unplugging anything. The transceiver may be damaged if cables are
connected or disconnected while the power is on.
Compatible Transceivers
The mAT-10 has a specially designed function for matching YAESU FT-817/818 transceiver.
When the tuner is applied to the FT-817/818 transceiver, the cable connection between the tuner
and the transceiver is completed by the following steps. Make sure that both the transceiver and
the tuner are shut down during cable connection operation.
a. Connect the HF/50 MHz antenna jack on the transceiver to the "RADIO" jack on the top of
the mAT-10.
b. Connect the control cable mAT-CY to the mini-DIN 8-pin jack on the rear of the mAT-10
marked "ACC" and other end of this cable to the ACC jack on the rear of the FT-817/818
transceiver.
c. Connect the antenna feed line coax to the "ANT" jack on the rear of the mAT-10.
If the tuner is used with other transceivers, the cable connection step should ignore Part b above.
