Re: [Elecraft] K3 Serial Port Connections

2009-11-01 Thread Mike
I have the rotor on a separate port. SteppIR sells a cable that goes 
from the computer to the radio to the control box 
(http://www.steppir.com/files/USWebPriceList.pdf  #02114).

I can't help with the amp hookup. How does the amp manual say to do it?

FWIW, I use USB to serial cables, and have no problems with them. Not a 
clue as to the brand, they weren't labeled.

John,

That is actually up to the user to determine.  It does require an 
interim intelligent device.
Check out LP-Bridge or several other serial port sharing applications 
that run on your PC.
The K3 is a terminal device, it does not provide control for all RS-232 
based communications.  Refer to the K3 Programmer's Reference to see the 
data that is sent to/from the K3.

Don W3FPR

[Elecraft] K3 Serial Port Connections

2009-10-31 Thread John Lally
How do you connect a K3 to antenna rotator, a computer, a transceiver
controlled amplifier and a stepper transceiver controlled antenna via the
one serial port on the K3?

 

Thanks.
