You can't connect two cables to one serial port. The SteppIR controller has two serial ports called Data In and Data Out. You connect Data In to the K3 using a special SteppIR cable. You connect Data Out to the computer using a standard serial cable, or USB to Serial adapter. http://www.steppir.com/files/Transceiver%20Interface%20Operation%205-28-09.pdf ----- Julian, G4ILO.
