The older SteppIR controller can only handle up to 19200 bps. That speed 
must be manually configured in all three devices - the SteppIR 
controller, the computer and the P3 - and the SteppIR controller MUST be 
connected at the INput of the P3 (NOT to the K3)

The connection between the P3 and the K3 will always be automatically 
reconfigured to 38400 bps (regardless of the manual configuration 
setting in the K3) so an older SteppIR controller cannot read the 
traffic at this speed.

The newer SteppIR SDA-100 controller can handle 38400 bps so it could be 
connected to either the K3 or the P3, but again this speed must be 
manually configured in all three devices.
