Default MFJ-929 and a Yaesu FT-857

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?

When select tuner on transceiver and the right transceiver selected on tuner
nothing happens.

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.

Thank you for answering.

When I select a tuner on FT-857 options, CAT type option turn automatically
to tuner and isn't changeable.

Since I try to connect and several options on this tuner, think I notice a
burned smell coming out from this tuner.
Works normally, maybe some device burned down by using any wrong option on
this MFJ-929.
