Given a number of reports about trouble downloading the latest K3 and P3
firmware, I decided to report my success conditions.

K3#125, P3#159, P3 power switch setup to turn on automatically with the
K3 but can turn off P3 power after K3 power up.

P3 connected to computer running XP.  P3 connected to K3, also Steppir
SDA100 controller hanging on the K3 line as a read only device.

P3 utility 1.3.8.25,  K3 utility 1.3.9.3
P3 power is not supplied by the K3, but comes directly from a Rigrunner
power distribution box from the station 12 volt supply.

Turned off P3 power switch.  Ran K3 utility and downloaded the K3
update.
A snap after I found the ftp files.  Closed the utility file.

Then cycled power switch on the K3.

Then ran the P3 utility and downloaded the P3 update.

Cycled power after closing the utility.

All is well.

It is really worth it.
