STEP 3 - Plug in the Converter/Check the Installation
PLUG IN THE CONVERTER
1. Using the included USB cable, plug the
Converter into an available USB port on your
PC or USB hub.
2. Using a serial cable (not included), plug
the DB9 or terminal block connector on the
converter into the RS-232 or RS-422/485
device.
CHECK THE INSTALLATION
1. Open Windows Device Manager.
2. Scroll down to Ports.
3. Expand ports by clicking on the plus sign.
This shows if the ports now exist on the PC.
If there are no exclamation points or other
indicators of a problem, the ports should be
installed correctly and ready for use.
VERIFY WITH A LOOPBACK TEST
1. For RS-232 or 4-wire RS-485, verify with a
loopback test. See RS-232 or RS-422/485
pinout chart for location of pins.
NOTE: For 2-wire RS-485, you cannot do a
loopback test as it uses the same two wires for
transmit and receive in a half-duplex operation.
The unit can either transmit or receive it cannot
do both at the same time.
2. Using Hyperterminal or a similar program,
connect to the appropriate COM port. Set the
baud rate. Make sure Hyperterminal local echo
is OFF.
NOTE: Hyperterminal is not provided with
Windows Vista or 2003 Server.
3. Transmit data. If the same character string is
returned, the test is good.
