Brian, You will need to make a special cable with three (3)connectors to connect the appropriate signals to both the KAT100 and the RS-232 port on your PC. See page 25 of the KAT100 manual for details.
Don't try to a standard serial I/O cable for the RS-232, that will do bad things to your K2/100. Make the special cable. 73 de Mike, N0SO -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Pepperdine Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2007 6:43 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] how to run KAT100 and control software - re. two controlcables OK. Honestly I have searched the mail list archives and manuals...and cannot find the answer.... I have a K2 with 100 w PA (so that serves in place of K102 i/w aux bus), and the KAT100 tuner. A cable runs from the K2 aux DB9 to the tuner. Now, I want to run a cable from my computer to allow me to use the K2 Remote Software. I have the cable.. but there is no place to put it!! I assume I have to use some sort of DB9 connector.. but what sort and where do I plug that it in such that the KAT100 tuner and the computer are connected? Does it go in the K2 aux socket and then cables go off to the KAT 100 and the computer? Or some other way that KAT100 and computer software signals are sent in a parallel fashion? If any one would please outline this in some detail or point me to where this it explained I would really appreciate it. Someone else might too.. since I honestly don't see it anywhere. But then again, my wife says I don't see things that are in plain sight. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
