[Elecraft] K3 SignaLink & FT8 Question

Dear OMs and YLs,
     I am going to help a friend get onto FT8.   He has a new Tigertronics
SignaLink, with the header for the K3 and appropriate cables for the K3.
This however does not in and of itself provide the ability to shift band or
frequency in the case of Fox Hound mode.

    Is it correct to say that a cable from the K3 RS232 port possibly via
the P3 to the PC is all that is required to gain this frequency shifting
capability.   The software being used other than what comes with the
SignaLink is standard WSJTX Version 2.? from K1JT's stable.

    I use FT8 some here but have a MicroKeyer II.   This is my first time
using a SignaLink.     Your guidance is appreciated.    Thank you in
advance.

                 73 Doug EI2CN
