about serial and the K2, do I still need to make a custom serial cable for my
K2 as suggested in the K2 manual?

Yes, you still need a custom cable whether you're using a regular serial
port on the PC or using a USB to serial adapter.

Eddy,
The answer is an emphatic YES. That cable is NOT suggested, it is
mandatory to keep from damaging your K2.
The K2 uses only 3 of the RS-232 level signals, TXD, RXD and Signal
Ground, and those conform to the normal RS-232 pins for those signals.
The other pins in the K2 AUX IO connector
That's what I surmised Don, as always many thanks!!
