Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn. | After burning out the com port on his laptop, my Coworker bought one of those USB to serial adapters.
His experience has been mixed. It works fine with some devices but not others. For example, he can do updates with some Raven products but not others.
When he can't perform the activities, we take the device to my desktop computer with a standard COM port. This works every time.
Our thinking is that certain devices expect some of the other lines that the adapter does not provide. |
