Connectors

[Anndel]

Aloha All,

 

I know it's premature and I need to read the installation and owner's manual
but
was skimming through them. I just got my K3/100 kit and will build it in a
few
days. How do you make multiple connections to the RS232/ACC? I have a
SteppIR
SDA 100 antenna controller, Palstar AT-Auto automatic tuner and Rig Expert
Standard TNC. I had an Icom 7600 where all I needed was a "Y" connector.

GM:  You will need one or more "Y" cables.  They are  available from a
number of suppliers but you need to ensure that all 15 wires are connected
thru.  Most recently I got some from Winford Engineering LLC - see
www.winford.com.  Their part No. CDY15HDMMF-1.

Anndel:  Sorry I didn't read your message close enough - my comments only
apply to the ACC connector.  The RS232 connector is a different situation
and I don't believe the "Y" approach will work.

All you need is the DB-9 serial Y connectors described by SteppIR and
Palstar.
 
For your SteppIR, see http://www.steppir.com/files/Y%20-%20Cable.pdf and
http://www.steppir.com/files/Transceiver%20Interface%20Operation%205-28-09.p
df

I found a chapter titled "Radio/Computer Serial Data "Y" Interface" in the
Palstar AT-Auto manual.
