K3 KIO3

I'm writing a Windows program for the K3. It connects at 38400 only. In trying to figure out what's wrong, I set my P3 and K3 to 9600 and used the K3 Utility. It will not connect.

If I set the K3 to 38400 and leave the P3 at 9600, the utility connects, but reports it's connected at 9600.

Puzzlement is rampant.

73, Mike NF4L

Re: K3 KIO3

The P3 translates the speed of the K3.
Both K3 & P3 should be set to the same baudrate for performance reason.

Re: K3 KIO3

As I understand it, the P3 and the K3 communicate at 38400 only so you need to leave the K3 at 38400. However if you have an application that needs to communicate with the K3 as some other baud, for example 9600, you can set the P3's rate to that and the application, like the utility, will happily think it is talking to the K3 at 9600.
Cheers and 73,

Not the issue. The post was meant for support, not the list. Mea culpa!

Thanks, Fred -

The issue is that nothing talks to the K3 at any rate other than 38400. The post was meant for support, but the list is often a tad faster.
