Gary,
The way to remotely turn the K3 ON is to pull the ACC connector pin 8 to
ground (ACC pin 5 or 12). See Remote Power On in the manual.
There is a command to turn the K3 OFF in the K3 Programmer's Reference,
but when powered off, the serial port is not powered, so it could not
respond
Here is the answer that I sent him:
My entire K line is managed by a computer. I use a USB board with a
pair of relays (only need one) and some specific software (shortcut on
the desktop) to tickle the ACC line to turn the K3 on when I am remote
operating.
On one of the lists I'm on, one of the
guys asked the following question & I have
no answer for him.
"Dear friends,
I am using K3 for remote operation.
Recently we experience the increase
of power failures here in Ukraine.
Despite of having 7AH battery as a PS
