Hmm. Never noticed this since I've always kept power on the KAT500. But it
does as it says...some of the time.
At my age, I'm not going to turn this into another time wasting science project,
but it seems to also depend on the state of the KPA500 (which the K3 weirdly
turns on and off with alternate power on cycles). And I think it's not
dependent on the ON/OFF state of the KAT500 but whether or not there is power
"applied" to the KAT500.

* KAT500 POWER-ON REMINDER ON K3 DISPLAY: If a powered-off KAT500 is pulling the auxBus
signal low when the K3 is first turned on, "TURN ON KAT500" is displayed.
Previously this condition would lock up the K3 without explanation.

If there way, I never saw it -- but I just tested it. Left the KAT500
off, powered up the K3S and no errors. Then powered on the KAT500 and
it all worked just fine. Guess I'll have to look back through the
"release notes" on the KAT500 firmware releases to see which one fixed
it.

Was there an announcement that this was fixed?

Yeah, that has been fixed but it worked before it was fixed.
