Alan,
One of the problems with learning the K2 is that the manuals were
written focusing on the build, and many operational things were learned
by the builder as he progressed through the build process.
One of the best ways to familiarize yourself with the K2 and its options
is to open the manual and imagine yourself building it, and particularly
concentrating on the the Alignment and Test sections. You probably don't
have to make all the adjustments, but you can run through the exercises
that involve turning the knobs and pressing buttons.
Repeat for the KPA100 and the KAT100, and then follow up by doing the
same thing with the manual for each of your installed options.
By the time you finish that process, you should be familiar with the
operation of your K2 Twins.
Hopefully the prior owner provided you with the control cable that plugs
between the base K2 KIO2 module and either the KPA100 or KAT100 DE-9
connector. If you do not have that cable, the KAT100 manual contains
the diagram for the cable that you need to build.
