Dave and all,

OK, the way it works is: The KPA100 (or KIO2) comes with a cable and 2 connectors (and backshells) to build the cable to connect to the computer. The KAT100 kit contains a length of cable and one connector to go onto the KAT100 end.

The pins for the cable to the computer are different than the pins used between the KPA100 and the KAT100 (this is NOT an "RS232 cable" - the K2 is marked 'AUX I/O' and it means just that, DO NOT PLUG AN RS232 SERIAL CABLE ONTO THE K2).

If you have both kits, you can build both ends of the cable at the same time - see the illustration in the KAT100 manual for the entire cable assembly.

73,
Don W3FPR

Do the kits come with everything to make a Y cable or do you need to order extra?

No, not true. From the plug in the AUX port in the KPA100 come two cables, one to your computer serial port and one as control to the KAT 100.

I'm thinking about purchasing KPA100 and KAT100 for my K2.

Is the following true? KAT100 occupies AUX port of KPA100
and makes controlling K2 from PC (MixW etc) impossible.
