USB serial converter
I need to connect my laptop to a unit on the machines that
we make. The connection works fine with a laptop that has a "standard" serial connector but I can not get my USB port to work with it. I used a USB-Serial converter but I am still having problems. The system requires connection from COM1 to COM1 and my USB is coming up on COM3, not sure if this is the problem. HELP |

HELP Try disabling the physical COM ports on your laptop via the BIOS. This *may* allow the USB driver to map down to COM 1. |
