RS 232 Connections

Dick-2
Have a K3 & KUSB with the P3.  It appears that if I want to connect to
my PC and run the K3 utility I must disconnect the P3 during this
process. Curious if there are other ways to enable both.

TIA  Dick

Upgrade the firmware in your P3 which will allow you to access either
without changing connections.

You don't need to do anything to send K3 commands with the P3 still
connected.  The P3 relays the K3 commands straight on through.  K3
Utility "thinks" it is connected directly to the K3.

You may be thinking of older versions of P3 firmware where you had to
turn off the P3 when downloading K3 firmware.  But that was fixed way
back in version 00.37 (September 2010).

Exactly.

If his does not work with the K3 while still connected via the P3, he must
have the old firmware in his P3.
