Seems like the P3 utility would talk to the P3 directly but the usual serial connection is Computer <===> P3 <===> K3. The P3 <==> K3 connection is needed so the P3 knows what band the K3 is on. You then need two other serial port Computer <==> KAT500 And Computer <==> KPA500

When I did so, I moved the PCI serial board from the old computer to the new one. I then plugged my K-line into the same ports on the computer as I originally had them plugged into on the old computer (K3 into the integrated port, P3 and KPA500 into the same ports on the PCI board). I then downloaded and installed all the latest utilities. Each utility found its relevant system except for the P3 utility. The P3 is plugged into one of two possible ports in the port list in the P3 utility. On either port, all the utility does is scan through the various baud rates looking for the P3. The baud rate on the P3 is set to 38400, as are the physical port configurations in Device Manager on the PC. I verified the cables are all connected properly. I verified the ports work properly. During this whole endeavor I didn't change anything in the connections on my K-Line. If anyone can make any suggestions as to what is causing this issue, I'd appreciate it. Thank you all in advance for the assistance. 73, --Ian Ian Kahn, KM4IK Roswell, GA EM74ua km4ik....@gmail.com K3 #281, P3 #688, KPA500 #1468 HRD v5.x/6.0 Test Team ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to fc...@ece.montana.edu ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
