Andrew, The KPA100 contains the same function as the KIO2 on its circuit board. The RS-232 part will not function when the KPA100 is mounted remotely. However, you have to provide a path for the internal K2 signals to communicate with the external equipment - IMPORTANT - those are NOT RS-232 signals, and applying RS-232 levels to them can damage the K2 (or KPA100 or KAT100).
So the answer is that you must have the KIO2 or a suitable substitute in the K2. Go to http://www.kk7p.com/k2kpa100.html and you can read all about it. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/25/2012 3:42 PM, Andrew Moore wrote: > I'm planning to remote a KPA100 and KAT100 from my existing K2/10, which > has no KIO2 module. > > I believe a KIO2 comes with the KPA100. > > Do I need yet another KIO2 to make this work?
