OOPS I missed that. The manual clearly says DO NOT US SVGA CABLES . They are
not wired straight through. You must use straight-through cables.

Jim,

I shudder when you said "SVGA cables".
You need to start with cables that connect all 15 pins straight through.
"SVGA cables" have several pins connected together and should not be used.

You have the right source, but I believe CableWholesale.com has both
straight through 15 pin cables and SVGA cables.  Make certain you have the
correct cables.

- I am looking at purchasing a KPA500 and KAT500 in the next few weeks and
want to be sure that, if I opt to use my own SVGA cables (actually from
CableWholesale.com) that I need to remove pins 1, 6, 7, and 8. Yes?
