FT-857D CAT from a web browser
Functional aspects

A hamradio station remote control is usually done by an application installed on a dedicated machine, this application being often developed according to an operating system (Windows, Unix, …). This video shows a FT-857D remote control using an application developed on a web browser and therefore independent of the system. The web server is an ESP32 TTGO micro-controller board connected to the FT-857D.

The developments are based on those described in the article on FT-857D parameters display on an ESP32 board.

The video presents the developments functional aspects.

The video is in French but is subtitled in English.
