PicoTuner Ethernet Interface

In progress . . .

PicoTunerWH (PicoTuner in WinterHill mode)

PicoTuneWH is software for the BATC PicoTUner.

When the standard USB connected PicoTuner is replaced by a WIZnet W5100S-EVB-Pico or W5500-EVB-Pico module, this provides two receivers which can be controlled over the Ethernet connection and can send the received transport streams via the Ethernet connection, similar to a WinterHill.

Overview

There is no transport sream transfer by USB. A USB connection is not required.

There are different .uf2 files for W5100S-EVB-Pico and W5500-EVB-Pico modules.

There is a debug facility over the USB serial port.

This software is compatible with OpenTuner (0.B).

Network multicast is not supported.

A broadcast packet with device and receive info is transmitted every second on port 9997, even if DHCP is unsuccessful.

If you do not have a WinterHill, see the BATC Wiki, particularly the Documentation and PC Software sections.

Finding the IP Address

See the section on the broadcast packet below.

LNB PSU Output

The LNB PSU is turned on by default at startup. If you do not want LNB voltage, make sure the LNB PSU jumpers are not fitted on the PicoTuner board.
