+== TeleMini v1.0
+
+	image::telemini-v1-top.jpg[width="5.5in"]
+
+	TeleMini v1.0 is ½ inches by 1½ inches.  It was
+	designed to fit inside an 18mm air-frame tube, but using it in
+	a tube that small in diameter may require some creativity in
+	mounting and wiring to succeed!  Since there is no
+	accelerometer, TeleMini can be mounted in any convenient
+	orientation.  The default ¼ wave UHF wire antenna attached to
+	the center of one end of the board is about 7 inches long. Two
+	wires for the power switch are connected to holes in the
+	middle of the board. Screw terminals for the e-matches for
+	apogee and main ejection charges depart from the other end of
+	the board, meaning an ideal “simple” avionics bay for TeleMini
+	should have at least 9 inches of interior length.
+
+      	=== TeleMini v1.0 Screw Terminals
+
+		TeleMini v1.0 has four screw terminals on the end of the
+		board opposite the telemetry antenna. Two are for the apogee
+		and two are for main igniter circuits. There are also wires
+		soldered to the board for the power switch.  Using the
+		picture above and starting from the top for the terminals
+		and from the left for the power switch wires, the
+		connections are as follows:

+		[options="header",grid="all",cols="2,3,10"]

+
+      	=== Using a Separate Pyro Battery with TeleMini v1.0
+
+		As described above, using an external pyro battery involves
+		connecting the negative battery terminal to the flight
+		computer ground, connecting the positive battery terminal to
+		one of the igniter leads and connecting the other igniter
+		lead to the per-channel pyro circuit connection. Because
+		there is no solid ground connection to use on TeleMini, this
+		is not recommended.
+
+		The only available ground connection on TeleMini v1.0 are
+		the two mounting holes next to the telemetry
+		antenna. Somehow connect a small piece of wire to one of
+		those holes and hook it to the negative pyro battery terminal.
+
+		Connecting the positive battery terminal to the pyro
+		charges must be done separate from TeleMini v1.0, by soldering
+		them together or using some other connector.
+
+		The other lead from each pyro charge is then inserted into
+		the appropriate per-pyro channel screw terminal (terminal 3 for the
+		Main charge, terminal 1 for the Apogee charge).
+
+      	=== Using an Active Switch with TeleMini v1.0
+
+		As explained above, an external active switch requires three
+		connections, one to the positive battery terminal, one to
+		the flight computer positive input and one to ground. Again,
+		because TeleMini doesn't have any good ground connection,
+		this is not recommended.
+
+		The positive battery terminal is available on the Right
+		power switch wire, the positive flight computer input is on
+		the left power switch wire. Hook a lead to either of the
+		mounting holes for a ground connection.
