1. Introduction

The USB Serial Adapter provides a standard serial interface to a PC

equipped with USB without requiring an add-in card. It supports many

existing applications and devices, providing true Plug-and-Play

capability. By default, the USB Serial Adapter installs without taking up

any resources. In this mode, most standard Windows®applications can

communicate with the device without using IRQ or memory location

resources. The device can also be easily set up to support DOS

applications that require specific resources.

3. Installation

3.1. Installing Windows®98 Drivers

1. Insert the disk labeled "USB Serial Adapter Installation

Disk" into your floppy drive (typically drive A:).

2. Insert the flat (type A) connector into an available USB

port on your PC or USB hub attached to your PC.

3. Insert the square connector (type B) into the USB Serial

Adapter device. You will see an Add New Hardware Wizard.

4. Click "Next".

5. When asked "What do you want Windows®to do?"

choose Search for the best driver for your device

(Recommended). Click "Next".

6. To search for new drivers, choose Floppy disk drives.

Click "Next".

7. Make sure the location of the driver is your floppy drive.

Click "Next".

8. The final dialog says "Windows®has finished installing

the software that your new hardware device requires."

Click "Finish".

A new COM port will automatically be installed for both the

OSR2.1 and Windows®98 versions. Follow the instructions below

to determine the name of the new COM port.

1. Follow the instructions below to open the Device Manager:

1. Right-click the "My Computer" icon on your desktop.

2. Click Properties from the menu that appears.

3. Click on the Device Manager tab on the System

Properties page.

2. Click on the "+" next to Ports (COM & LPT).

You will see a list of ports. One of the ports will be labeled USB

Comm Port (COM name) where COM name is the name of the

new COM port. This name will be used in applications.

3.2. Adding DOS Box Support (Optional)

DOS Box support for the USB Serial Adapter is useful if you

intend to use DOS applications, but not necessary for Windows®

applications. If you are using only Windows®applications, it is

recommended that you do not install this feature as it uses

resources. For more information about using DOS Box

applications, see section 4.4. Enabling DOS Box support

requires one IRQ and a range of eight memory locations in

order to function. In addition, some DOS applications require

certain IRQ and memory configurations to be associated with

specific COM ports. To enable DOS Box support for a

USB Serial Adapter device, follow the instructions below.

3. Follow the instructions below to open the "Device Manager":

1.Right-click on the "My Computer" icon on your desktop.

2.Click "Properties" from the menu that appears.

3.Click the "Device Manager" tab on the System

Properties page.

4. Click the "+" next to Ports (COM & LPT).

5. Click "USB Comm Port" (ComX) where X is the port

number of the device to which you’d like to add

DOS Box support.

6. Click the "Properties" button.

7. Click the "DOS Box" tab.

8. Click the box next to Enable DOS Box 16550

Emulator. A check mark will appear in the box.

9. Choose a DOS name for the port from the list box next

to Logical Device Name (DOS Box). Many DOS

applications will only work with COM1-COM4. If you don’t

want any of these, choose COMX. Click "OK".

10. You will be asked for the USB to Serial installation disk.

Insert the disk into your floppy drive and click "OK". If a

dialog pops up stating that a file could not be found,

make sure that the Copy files from: edit box contains

the name of your floppy drive and click "OK".

Once DOS Box support is enabled for a specific USB Serial

Adapter device, and additional Port entry in the Device

Manager will be created, labeled 16550 COM Port Emulator.

You will also be able to disable and enable this feature.

To disable or re-enable DOS Box support, follow steps 1-6

above. If you are disabling DOS Box support, the check

mark will disappear.

3.3. Uninstalling the USB Serial Adapter Drivers

1. Unplug all USB Serial Adapter devices from the

USB ports.

2. Open the "Control Panel" and double-click on

Add/Remove Programs.

3. On the Install/Uninstall page, click on "USB Serial Adapter"

software from the list box and click "Add/Remove".

4. You can choose to uninstall the USB Serial Adapter driver

and installation files, the mouse driver and installation

files, or both. Choose whatever you would like to remove

(a check mark will appear in the box next to each item to

be uninstalled) and click "OK".

5. A list of activities will appear in the Results: box. Click

"Done" to exit the uninstaller.

4. Using the USB Serial Adapter

4.1. Serial Plug-and-Play Device Detection

A Plug-and-Play device, such as a modem, can be

detected in one of two ways:

1. Attach the serial device to the USB Serial Adapter.

Unplug cable and plug the USB B connector to the

USB Serial Adapter.

2. Attach the serial device to the USB Serial Adapter.

Follow the instructions below to open the

"Device Manager":

1. Right-click the "My Computer" icon on

your desktop.

2. Click "Properties" from the menu

that appears.

3. Click the "Device Manager" tab on the

System Properties page.

4. Click "Refresh".

Your Plug-and-Play device should be detected and you may

be asked for a driver if it has not been previously installed.

Follow the instructions that came with your device to complete

the installation.

4.2. Adding Non-Plug-and-Play (Legacy) Devices

Non-Plug-and-Play devices must be added through the Add New

Hardware wizard in the Control Panel. Using this wizard, follow

the installation instructions that came with your device.

4.3. LED Indicator Lights

There are three LEDs on the USB Serial Adapter. When the

device is installed, the center, green LED will remain blinking

until the installation is complete. If the installation is successful,

the red LED will remain on, indicating power. When the device

is plugged in after installation, the lights will blink one at a time

in sequence from the red LED to the green LED, then back.

When the device has fully initialized and is ready to work, the

red power LED will remain on. During normal usage, the two

green LEDs indicate data being transmitted and received.

4.4. Using the USB Serial Adapter With DOS Applications

To enable the USB Serial Adapter to work with DOS applications,

follow the instructions in section 3.2 Adding DOS Box Support.

You can choose a different name for DOS than what is used for

Windows®. You may need to do this if the USB Serial Adapter has

been installed as COM5 or higher, since many DOS applications

will only use COM1-COM4. For instance, if you are adding

DOS Box support to COM7, you can choose to have DOS

applications use the device as COM2 instead, if COM2 is not

already in use. COM7 would still be available for use with

Windows®applications, but both COM2 and COM7 refer to

the same physical device.

Therefore, while a DOS application is using COM2, COM7

will be unavailable to Windows®applications and vice-versa.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1. Port unavailable

If the installation of the USB Serial Adapter has been completed

but the port is unavailable to applications, follow the instructions

below to diagnose the problem:

1. Check the LEDs on the USB Serial Adapter.

• If the red light is on steady, skip to the next section.

• If there are no lights on, check to make sure the device

has been properly plugged in.

• If the center, green LED is blinking steadily, the device

has not been configured properly. This can happen if

the wrong drivers have been installed for your operating

system. If the wrong drivers have been installed or if you

are not sure, follow the instructions in section 3.3,

Uninstalling the USB Serial Adapter Drivers and reinstall

the software.

2. Check to make sure no other applications are using the

COM port.

3. If you have enabled DOS Box support, make sure that no

other applications are using the Windows®name for the

COM port or the DOS name for the COM port (see section

4.4 Using the USB Serial Adapter with DOS Applications).
