John,

I don't know if or how that HRD does it, but remote power off is available if the software issues a PS0; command to the K3. Note that a powered off K3 is not listening to commands, there is no way to turn the K3 on via RS-232 command. To turn the K3 back on remotely, an external device must pull the ACC connector pin 8 to ground. That may require additional hardware at the remote site.

All I could find in the archives was this simple statement.

the K3 using the Power off command through the serial communications
port, and then shut down the computer too.

Well no other explanation was given. So that might be fine for some
computer expert but doesn't tell me anything other than yes it is possible.
Can someone point me to a step by step instructions on how to turn off the
K3 radio by remote?
