[Elecraft] KPA500 remote program - Power control

[Paul Baldock]

I changed the Baud rate from 9600 to 38400 and now the POWER button 
works to turn the amp on and off.

I am running KPA500 remote program. I am connected via RS232.

If the KPA500 is ON (at the back and at the front) then I can HOST 
and CONNECT to the KPA500 and control all functions. When I press the 
POWER button on the KPA500 remote program the KPA500 correctly turns 
off. However, when I press the remote POWER button again the KPA500 
does not turn back on. It seems that the KPA500 RS232 port is not 
active when the KP500 is not ON.  Is this correct? If so how do I 
turn the power on remotely from the PC?

Thanks
