ST2-0522-USB-TTL Interface is developed for Yaesu G5400/5500 & homebrew Rotators. Kits are supplied in a PLC style plastic case.

Project uses PIC16F876A and is electronically identical to design of an ST2-USB Kits. It can be configured by changing headers for use as an USB interface or a TTL / 2.4GHZ controller. 

ST2 uses standard  "Yeasu GS232" type instruction sets for communication with PC software, such as SatPC32, Nova, HRD etc.

ST2-0522-USB/TTL  can be used as:

1. A standard USB interface for Yaesu Controller

2. Remotely placed controller using a RS485 or 2.4GHZ adapters connected to its TTL Port. 

ST2-0522-USB/TTL Kit do not include RS485 or 2.4GHZ modules which may be purchased from aliexpress or ebay. 

USB section uses CH340 type chip whereas TTL IN/OUT are directly to the PIC16F876A, suitable to interface with any RS485 or 2.4GHZ modules for remote operation.

ST2 is now offered with two types of LVB Tracker Firmware: LVB V0.7 and New Mod FW By KR1ST V1.2
