KAT500 /K3 cable with US Interface soundcard

I recently ordered the KPA500 & KAT500. Looking at the connection diagram between the K3 & KAT500 there is a connection on the ACC of the K3. My Navigator soundcard is now connected to the ACC on the K3. What is the solution to use both the KAT500 & the Navigator?

Tnx,
Jack

Jack,

A "Y" adapter for DB15HD can be used at the K3 end. Make sure it has
all 15 pins wired "straight through" - A VGA "Y" will NOT do because it
does not use all the pins and connects some of them together.

I recall the proper adapter is available at Cable Wholesale (or
something like that).

Isn't that the "Y" adapter that comes with the KPAK3AUX?

Yes, but he apparently did not have it or did not read (or understand)
the instructions for its use.
