July 18, 2023: An updated Operation Manual has been posted that supports the latest changes in the Mini’s firmware.
Originally I intended to use this blog and my YouTube channel, Lynovation, to document the features and operation of CTR2-Mini. While this is Ok, I realize that there is a need to have one place where I can document everything about the Mini in an orderly fashion.
So I have created an Operations Manual. This manual gives you a basic overview of the Mini’s hardware and displays. It shows you how to connect it to your station and includes the Radio I/O wiring diagrams and Function Button keypad schematics in the appendixes. Most importantly, it covers every option on every menu and gives you a brief description of their use.
The Table of Contents is linked to each of the topics. Just find what your looking for in the Table of Contents and click the entry to go to that information in the manual. You can also press Ctrl+F to open your browser’s search feature and search the entire manual for specific words.
This is a work in progress. As I revise or update sections I will highlight those sections in yellow. That way you can easily find new information. You can browse the document here or download it for a better viewing experience.
This manual’s version number will always be in sync with the latest Mini firmware version number. The highlighted sections in the manual indicate changes from the previous version of firmware in addition to any edits that I make in other area.
If you have any suggestions, or something raises more questions that it answers, let me know. You can use the Contact Me page here or email me directly. My email address is current on QRZ.com.
Thanks for your support of the CTR2-Mini project!
