No I don't, but probably the easiest way to do this would be to to find 
a
Mac specific Modem Cable (Ebay for $4 US).  It will have the correct DIN
connector for the Classic Mac serial port and a DB-25 connector at the
other end. My guess is that you would just need a DB-25 to DB-9 adaptor
to connect the cable up to the K2 (it looks like the KIO2 has a DB-9
on it).  The adaptor, I believe, should be straight through as I am 
assuming
that the computer would view the K2 as being DCE, just like a modem.
