Thanks Dick, John and Don - I plugged the Loop control directly to the KX3, and tried the different baud rates - the control only works on 4800. In other reading, it seems that when the amp is on, everything defaults to 38400, so that is probably why the control box can not communicate. Perhaps by way of the utility codes, I can change the baud rate of the amp. Thank you for helping me get closer to the solution. Tom

But take a look at the baud rate requirements for your loop control box. If it will handle 38.4k, then all is well, but if it requires a lesser baud rate, set both the KX3 and the KXPA100 to that baud rate. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/4/2016 10:34 AM, Thomas Beltran wrote: > Hello John and thanks.
