The USB-to-serial adapter cable has a USB connector on one end and at least one (possibly more) serial connector on the other end.
Start the USB to the serial adapter in 3 simple steps:
- Download and install the driver for your specific converter.
- Insert the converter into the USB port of the computer.
- Connect the serial device to the converter.
Now, although your computer does not have a physical COM port, you can still interact with the serial device. This method requires that your computer has an available USB port.
