I have not done this, but let me sugest a few things. The post (Chanel
0) can look just like a KF2. But you need to make certain that it's in
DF1 mode, and not user mode. If you can hook up your AB programing
software to this port, and make it work, then you will know it's in the
corect mode. If you are usin AI serries programing software, it can
auto detect teh baud rate, parity et all for you.
Hope this helps.
