The TT USB cable will connect a TinyTrak3Plus, TinyTrak4, or MT-RTG to a computer USB port for configuring and operating.
In addition, if the TinyTrak is set for 5V on J7 (TT3+) or JP6 (TT4) to power a Byonics GPS, the TT USB will also provide the USB 5V to power the TinyTrak.
It is essentially a USB A to DB-9 female RS-232 serial adapter plus a F-F null modem cable, with the bonus of providing 5V to power the TinyTrak via pin DB-9 4.
Note: The TinyTrak or MicroTrak should NOT be connected to 12V when using the TT USB.
Note: Windows 11 does not need additional drivers installed for this cable.
