Jon, How did you try to do the remote control with the KPA100? Unless you had a KIO2 to install, there is no AUX IO port on the base K2.
Do you have an oscilloscope? If not, do you have a source of -9 to -12 volts and a DMM? A 9 volt battery and some clip leads will do the job. Tell me what you have and I can tell you how to set it up to test the RS-232 to TTL conversion IC. The fact that it works from the K2 to the computer is helpful and eliminates half the testing. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/1/2011 12:29 PM, Jon Perelstein wrote: > I have a K2/100 and KAT100, and do remote control using the RS-232 port > using a cable I made over a year as per the instructions in the KAT100 > manual.
