[Elecraft] How do I turn OFF my K3 remotely

[Don Wilhelm]

John,

I don't know if or how that HRD does it, but remote power off is 
available if the software issues a PS0; command to the K3.  Note that a 
powered off K3 is not listening to commands, there is no way to turn the 
K3 on via RS-232 command.  To turn the K3 back on remotely, an external 
device must pull the ACC connector pin 8 to ground.  That may require 
additional hardware at the remote site.
