[Elecraft] P3 not communication through RS232 cable

[Cady, Fred]

Make sure the RJ45 connector is snapped into the RS232/P3 RJ45 socket.  You should hear a distinctive snap when it is inserted properly.
cheers,
Fred KE7X

Subject: [Elecraft] P3 not communication through RS232 cable

My Pc has the svga installed when I put the kit together but I do not have a
monitor installed for svga yet. I originally was able to download the
firmware using the usb a/b cable and my computer.



The usb a/b cable is now connected to the K3s usb port and using the
lp-bridge for rig control/ logging.



The P3 is seeing signals and waterfall but does not display the VFO A
frequency in the center of P3 display, Instead it show 0 in center and + -
19.5 on each end of display.



The P3 is port connected to the K3s with the RS232 cables included. I cannot
connect to the utilites or Elecraft through the supplied cables.



What am I missing here?



Earl, K4KAY
