Lou, Phil, Do NOT use those to connect between the K2 (or K2/100) and the computer - the RS-232 voltages applied to pins other than 2 and 3 will damage the K2.
You can use a standard serial cable to connect between the K2 and the KAT100 - Just do not connect it to the computer. You MUST use the cable shown in the KAT100 manual to connect to the computer - only pins 2, 3 and 5 should be connected at the computer end, or damage to the K2 or KAT100 can result. 73, Don W3FPR Phil Kane wrote: > On 8/24/2009 4:43 PM, Lou Aguilar wrote: > > >> I am looking for Y serial port cable to connect my K2/100 to the >> KAT100 and to a PC. >> > > >> I can not make any cables right now due to bad eyesight. >> > > I am in the same condition.
