[Elecraft] KX3+KXPA100+PX3 = Outta Inputs/Outputs

[Dick Dievendorff]

At the bottom of the picture on page 9 it shows the 3.5mm connector plugging into the KXPA100 RS232 (PC) connector. It says “to personal computer”.  That cable may be a KXUSB (if you want USB to serial) or a KXSER (if you have a DE-9 RS-232 connector). I use a KXUSB sometimes, and sometimes I use a KXSER to my Edgeport 8-port USB to serial adapter.

Dick, yes. As on page 9, all of the connectors are in use for the KX3, the PX3 and the KPXA100 per the Elecraft design. Ergo, my dilemma: where would a KXUSB go?

David A., see page 9 of the PDF Dick uploaded. This is the Elecraft design for all ports and cables when using the KX3, the PX3 in line with the KXPA100. 

David O. and David A., if you’re suggesting using the ACC1 available port on the KXPA100 (end of the daisy chain), I have tried that, and unfortunately this causes a new problem: the KX3 refuses to enter the PA Mode with the KXUSB connected. Menu>PA Mode>On will not stick. It just falls back to Off.

Can you explain what you have connected to the ACC1 port on the KX3 at present?

Got the KX3 Line. KAT500 and W2 also. Love ‘em. Now, I appear to be out of inputs and outputs with little lines running between the boxes and all of the inputs/outputs in use. What do you do to get a KXUSB into the KX3 for radio control from a variety of software programs into an ACC1 PC port? None available. Can the ACC1 port be Y’d?
