The KAT500 has no serial port, just a 3.5mm round jack.

when i plug in the serial/usb cable, a new com port, com4 appears in the
list of com ports.  however, the kat500 utility cannot complete the
handshake when trying to connect to the new com4.  i checked the plug in
the back, and it appears to be all the way in.

advice and suggestions appreciated.
