Assuming it's the same as for the IC-910H, the CI-V Transceive function is like a real-time updating facility, whereby when you tune the radio manually, it continually sends CI-V data to the computer. You do not want this enabled while running Chirp. FLRIG quite likely does want this enabled, so this may be the setting that Jim was referring to.
The Chirp driver for the IC-7100 is a live mode driver. As such, Chirp uses the CI-V interface to talk to, and receive data from, the radio. I don't know about the connectors on that radio, but make sure you're connecting to the CI-V interface.

Two COM port numbers are assigned to the [USB] connector. One of them is “USB1,” used for cloning and CI-V operation. The other one is “USB2,” whose function is selected in “USB2 Function” item of the “Connectors” Set mode. (p. 6-8)

Running CHIRP 0.3.0dev, when I try to download from the radio via
/dev/ttyUSB0, I get a pop-up error message: unicode strings are not supported, please encode to bytes: <<gibberish characters>>>".
Are there specific settings I need to have set on the ICOM?
Is CHIRP able to interact with the ICOM-7100 via the mini-USB port?
Do I have to use the RT-Systems FTDI cable into the audio port?
P.S. I also tried running Windows CHIRP daily-20220408. Download from
radio gets "error" in every entry.

I know that when I used CHIRP on my IC-7300, I used a different cable than I did when I used FLRIG. I also had to edit a setting in the radio for CHIRP and change it back for FLRIG.
