Instruction Manual
The supplied mAT-CY transceiver control cable is 50 centimeters long. If desirable to position
mAT-10 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.
CONNECTING YAESU FT-817/818 TRANSCEIVERS
When the tuner is connected to FT-817/818 transceivers, 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.
1.
Connect the HF/50 MHz antenna jack on the transceiver to the “RADIO” jack on the top
of the mAT-10 with coaxial cable.
2.
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.
3.
Connect the antenna feed line coaxial cable to the “ANT” jack on the rear of the mAT-10.
CONNECTING OTHER TRANSCEIVERS
Follow instructions for FT-817/818, skipping step 2 for the control cable.
OPERATION
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION
When the mAT-10 is turned off and the multi-function
button is pressed, the three indicator lights in the upper half of the tuner are used to indicate the
battery power level. When the button is released, the tuner is still turned off.
POWER ON AND OFF
Since the tuner will detect if the FT-817/818 transceiver is currently
connected at startup, turn on the power of the transceiver first and then turn on the power of the
tuner. Press the multi-function button until the "Power Indication" light in the lower half of the
tuner is lit. To turn power off, press and hold the multi-function button until all the lights
including the "Power indication" light is off.
ONLINE / BYPASS
By pressing the multi-function button, mAT-10 can switch between
"Online" and "Bypass". The indicator lamp marked "Online/Bypass" will be lit to indicate that the
tuner is in line and ready to use. When off, it indicates that the tuner is bypass.
