K3S USB port question

Jim Sheldon
Can the K3 be controlled using RS-232 via the RJ-45 while simultaneously
using the USB connection for it's sound card functions?  I didn't find a
difinitive answer in the books.  If it can do this, I won't have to
re-configure all my software and it would save me a bunch of time - LOL.

Yes.  Set the RS232 menu item to the speed you want.  If it is not in
USB in that menu, then it is using the regular RS232 port.

To use the USB audio for Tx, be sure no cable is plugged into the analog
LINE IN jack.

Thanks Lyle,
I thought that was the way it should work, but I couldn't find it in the
books (not sure if I overlooked it or might be something that needs to
be added).  Anyway that saves me a whole lot of shack re-wiring and I'll
be able to run two instances of MMTTY for SPLIT copy of the 2nd RX.

Also gets the HUGE HAL ST-8000A off the desk and frees up a bunch of
room on the monitor shelf.

73,
Jim, W0EB

If I understand what you mean to ask the answer is yes.
You can do CAT control AND audio in/out via K3S USB at the same time.
Don't connect anything to the DB connector. It is NOT a standard serial
connection
