Looking at the K3 backside, an DB9 serial connector. Was thought given
to USB and/or Ethernet?
Indeed it was. By using RS232, we allow older computers to connect with
a simple cable, and USB-equipped computers to connect using a cable with
some electronics in it.
I successfully operate and load firmware into my K3 using both methods.
And believe me, as the guy writing the DSP code, I do a lot of code
loading, so I've exercised this interface a *lot* !
Fortunately, thanks to its plug-in PC board modular design, the K3 has
the potential for future options using dedicated USB, Ethernet -- or ???
