Geo,

I don't know that specific logger, but in general, you will need to 
connect the computer cable that was built with your KPA100 between the 
K2 AUX IO and a computer serial port.  Then tell the logging application 
it is working with a K2 and also which com port it is connected to.

WARNING - Do NOT connect a standard serial cable to the K2 AUX IO 
connector - there are internal K2 signals intended for operation of 
external Elecraft devices - transverters, KRC2, KAT100.  Note that the 
connector is NOT labeled RS-232  - there are 2 RS-232 signal lines TXD 
and RXD, but only those 2.  If you bought a used KPA100 and did not 
receive the special cable, you will have to obtain the parts and build 
the one specified in the KPA100 (or KIO2) manual.

For best reliability, use a real serial port or a good USB to serial 
converter - many "adapters" do not like to work at the "slow" 4800 baud 
rate of the K2.
