Gary, I don't know what is going on, but I can assure you of one thing - the K3 does not poll - it only responds to what it sees on the RS-232 bus. Any polling must be initiated at the computer end.
Is there any chance that you can try a computer with a real serial port? That should give an indication of whether the K3 is at fault or the computer/USB adapter is the culprit. 73, Don W3FPR rfenab...@gmail.com wrote: > Can anyone guess what I am NOT doing correctly? > > KUSB (Prolific usb) driver installed in Windows xp pro with SP3 > > Windows says installed and working correctly.
