KIO3B Interface Option manual:

Monitoring RS232 Data
If you have a device such as a STEPP-IR antenna controller or pc program 
that monitors the RS232 port, you
can continue to use it with the USB port active.
You can connect your device to the RS232 data in two ways:
1. Use the RJ-45 to DE-9S cable plugged into the RS232/USB port on the 
K3 and sense the RS232 signals at the DE-9S connector.

2. If you have a P3 Panadapter connected to the K3, sense the RS232 
signals at the connection to the PC connector on the P3. Never attempt 
to sense RS232 signals at the XCVR connector.
