RS232 to USB port adaptor

<< < (2/2)

AlbertMartinez:
I have been successfully using an Edgeport/1 USB to RS-232 Converter for about a year. The manufucturer is Inside Out Networks (www.ionetworks.com) and the vendor is B & B Electronics (www.bb-elec.com).

Make sure that in TLServer you select the right communications port (Com1, Com2, etc) assigned to the physical USB port your USB Converter is connected to.
