Try to connect a MFJ-929 and a Yaesu FT-857. Use a MFJ-5114Y cable to
connect.


Which parameter should I select on both for start tuning process by push the
tune button on tuner?


You'll need to inform the FT-857 that it has a CAT-compatible tuner
attached. Check your owner's manual. If I recall correctly, there
are two menu items that you'll need to set. One of them tells the
radio that there's a slave CAT device attached, and the other tells it
to talk to a tuner via the CAT port.
