Mobilinkd TNC configuration utility for Microsoft Windows. Use this programs to set output volume, monitor input volume and set all KISS parameters on computers running Microsoft Windows. The computer must have a Bluetooth interface in order to use this program.

This is only for the TNC2 -- it will not work with the TNC3.

Please use the iOS or Android config app rather than this program.

Firmware update instructions.Please use STM32CubeProgrammer version 2.13.0 or earlier for now as later versions of STM32CubeProgrammer have a defect preventing the software from programming the TNC3.

Please note that updated config apps for iOS and Android are required to enable 9600 baud. On iOS, you must be using the Mobilinkd Config app version 1.1 or greater. On Android, the Mobilinkd Config app version 1.3.0 or greater is required.

2.0.1: Fix corrupted TX when connected via USB. Reduce minimum frame size.

2.0.0: Add 9600 baud support.

1.1.7: Eliminate Bluetooth data stalls.

1.1.6: Avoid deadlock on startup.

1.1.5: Initialize PTT & KISS parameters properly when running without a battery.

1.1.4: Do not detect carrier when no signal is present. This allows the TNC to work with a closed squelch.

1.1.3: Fix USB serial port behavior on Windows impacting Winlink Express. Improve 1200 baud decode performance. Change modulator to send HDLC idle frame during preamble (TX delay).

1.1.2: Fix corrupted packets caused by SLIP encoding error. Reduce packet collisions by fixing CSMA handling defect.

1.1.1: Fix issue where short 17-byte packets were being dropped. This defect impacted Winlink users.

1.1.0: This decreases the latency over BLE connections. It noticeably improves responsiveness of the iOS Config App. (This update does little if you are not on iOS.)

Firmware update for the TNC4

Firmware update instructions.

Changes

3. Fix an RTC initialization bug.
4. Reset button takes the TNC out of low battery state.
5. Update battery monitor code and add VDDA monitor.
6. Indicate error when VDDA exceeds 3.42V (input audio is over-driven). Shutdown when VDDA falls below 3.18V (low battery).
7. Update 9600 baud FSK modulator to use interpolating FIR filter rather than lookup table for pulse shaping.
8. Reset LED indicator when stopping to prevent bogus indicator on button press while stopped.
9. Fix M17 packet SRC (TNC3 -> TNC4).
10. Fix M17 demod offset.
11. Fix divide by zero that would cause M17 demodulator to stop working.
12. Other miscellaneous M17 demod changes which should improve demod performance.
13. Optimize math in DataCarrierDetect.
14. Internal improvements.
1. Upgrade HAL library to version 1.18.0, STMCubeMX to 6.12.0, and STM32CubeIDE to 1.12.0. Switch to using CMake, VS Code, and STM32 Code plugin for development.
2. Work around new defect in HAL_RCC_OscConfig.
3. Make startIOEventTask the default task.
4. Disable CDC connection when Bluetooth connection established rather than stalling USB.
2. Version 2.5.10
1. Fix high power drain when powered off.
3. Version 2.5.9
1. Fix shutdown LED duration.
