How to construct an RS232 cable :











Or you can buy a pre-assembled cable. Careful : this is not a null-modem cable

How to establish a wireless link :

Wireless data transfer between the PC/terminal and the K8045 is possible by
means of optional RF transmitter/receiver modules (Velleman part# TX433/
RX433). Transmission quality depends on your environment. Other RF sources
might interfere with your signal (and will cause occasional ‘garbage’ on-screen).


















The receiver is mounted on the left hand side of the K8045 board. Watch the
position, the coils point to the LCD of the K8045. If you choose wireless opera-
tion, make sure to set jumper SK3 to ‘RF’
