kx3 with the krc2

[NOEL POULIN]

Hi,
I have connected the KX3 to the Krc2 Band Decoder.
It is working ok now , thanks to Don W3FPR, and also to VIC VE3YT for
their help.
I used a KXSER cable between the KX3 and the decoder and a serial cable
between the decoder to the pc.
Vic told me what jumpers to use to make the decoder to work.Thanks
again. And Don also gave me a lot of infos..appreciated Don..
Now I have to move this set up to a laptop computer, and there  is no
serial port on this laptop.
I have in my shack an IOGEAR USB TO SERIAL adapter model GUC232A.
I connect it to the lap top, and I SEE COM9 in the device manag of the
laptop computer.
The kx3 will be connected to the laptop with the KXUSB CABLE on port 3.I
use Win4k3Suite software..
Win4k3 suite can talk to the KX3 without any problems...
If I want to put the KRC2 between the the KX3 and the laptop .....will I
have to  use the GUC232A cable....the big question, is...    will that
set up be working with the GUC232A...
I would appreciate help... I am a bit confused about the COM9 (GUC232A)....
Thanks  very much
Noel

Noel,

You just need to tell Win4K3 software to use COM port 9 and all should
work fine.

Be aware that if you plug that USB to serial adapter into another USB
socket, the COM port assignment may be changed.
