Yes, and then you get to buy a bunch of parts for your KIO2<g>! DO NOT CONNECT RS-232 to your KIO2 without opening all unused (by RS-232) pins. ONly Sig Ground, TX and RX go from computer to K2. All other lines on the KIO2 are not RS-232 and can't tolerate the +- 15V the computer will supply.

Michael Babineau Replied: No I don't, but probably the easiest way to do this would be to to find a Mac specific Modem Cable (Ebay for $4 US). It will have the correct DIN connector for the Classic Mac serial port and a DB-25 connector at the other end. My guess is that you would just need a DB-25 to DB-9 adaptor to connect the cable up to the K2 (it looks like the KIO2 has a DB-9 on it). The adaptor, I believe, should be straight through as I am assuming that the computer would view the K2 as being DCE, just like a modem.
