If you directly connect the controller to the KPA500’s PC serial port, then you 
can control it in many ways.
The only information passed from the K3 to the KPA500 is the band information, 
using the BAND output signals form the K3. There are no other communications. 
Thus the K3 cannot tell the KPA500 to change operating modes, or anything else 
besides band. The opposite direction _is_ supported on a limited basis, which 
is how band requests are sent to the K3 from the KPA.
