Even with a Y cable from SteppIR the controller only listens to the
signals. It does not ask for anything. So you have to have something
that is sending out polling data regularly, which is why you need the
computer.
Alternatively if you us a Microham controller there is a good chance you
can buy their Ilink cable and hook it into the SteppIR and you are
set. The Microham will also defeat you Xmitting while the antenna is
moving.

I googled "stepper y cable" and found these. Maybe the other "hits" will be of

Subject: [Elecraft] SteppIR controller with K3S+P3
Hi everyone!
I am a happy new owner of a brand new K3S and a P3, and everything is working
quite well.
Now, I would like to connect my SteppIR SDA-100 antenna controller to the K3S.
I would like to be able to not use the computer to control the antenna
controller.
Any suggestion from a few hams with similar setup as mine on how to use the
SDA-100 without the needs of a computer?
My guess is I should do a Y cable between the connector labeled PC behind the
P3 by using only the PIN 2 and 5 then thru the SDA-100 ???
