Special
Note
for both Digi and D-Gate When powering the µSmartDigi-TNC-X with input voltages above 9 volts DC you will need to either add a heat sink to the 7805 voltage regulator or relocate the regulator to use the TNC-X metal enclosure as a heat sink. You may use the PCB-mounted 7805 without a heat sink if you are using an input from 7.5v to 9v DC. This is the preferred method since the TNC-X PCB can be serviced without removing or unbolting the regulator. The PCB hold-down screws and DB9 screws can be removed and the PCB can be rotated upward. Here are the instructions for mounting the 7805 to the metal enclosure.
Photos for the mounting of the regulator are HERE. |

µSmartDigi
Angles and Lat-Lon Specification
The
µSmartDigi
uses a very flexible format to specify angles such as Latitude,
Longitude and actual angles found in the Rules file. This allows
users to enter these angles in a format that is easy and familiar while
not being restrictive. Here are some examples: -38:33:29.222,
38.33.379, 42d23.7m33.9c, W104D40.6m
A
complete description for the the Angles Specification is found in the
latter part of the Rules description found HERE
and can also be displayed from the µSmartDigi
Monitor mode using the angles
command.
µSmartDigi
comes with a 2-page Getting Started Guide. See the Versions
tables below for the latest edition.

Cables
Instructions
for making serial cables for the µSmartDigi
can be found HERE. Cabling for the TNC-X to the
Radio can be found in the TNC-X manual included with your TNC-X and
also at Coastal ChipWorks http://www.tnc-x.com/documentation.htm.
A TNC-X Radio wiring diagram for the older stereo connector model is http://www.tnc-x.com/hookup.gif
and for the new DIN connector model is http://www.tnc-x.com/hookup2.gif.
But in either case use the µSmartDigi
serial
cabling instructions instead of the serial wiring in these images.

Downloads
µSmartDigi
PC Configuration software and Firmware can be downloaded by selecting
the appropriate link from the table below. Make certain you have
selected the correct PCB and Chip Versions! Due to the small size
of the PC Utility it is the actual executable program file. A general
rule is to use the latest versions for each of the Firmware, PC Utility
and Instructions.
