[Elecraft] K3 RS232 Query

[john petters]

Hi Dick,
Just connected the USB adaptor to the serial lead on com 8, where it is,
and opened Winlog32 OK with full control.
Disconnected USB and plugged the serial lead into Com 1 and re-set the
programme to Com 1 and it will display the the frequency as I spin the
VFO, but I cannot control the K3 with the computer. I'm using the three
wires as specified in the manual. Pins 2, 3 & 5. Do I need to connect
the other two pins?
Haven't got any other serial devices I can try, but no reason to believe
the Com ports should be faulty.
