Manhattan USB-A to Serial Converter cable, 45 cm, Male to Male, Serial/RS232/COM/DB9, Prolific PL-2303RA Chip, Black/Silver cable, Blister

This cable works well in Linux and should work well in most any modern OS. The manufacturer provides drivers for Linux, Mac and Windows on the included mini CD and on their web site. In Linux at least, the driver is included in any kernel above 2.6.9, so no driver should need to be installed. You just plug the cable into a USB port and the system will detect it as a pl2303 device and attach it to /dev/ttyUSB0.

When using this cable in Wine, you have to link the Linux device to the Windows serial port COM1, with the command "ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 ~/.wine/dosdevices/com1" as regular user, as mentioned at [...]. Then, any Windows software that runs in Wine should be able to access your serial device. I don't currently know of any native Linux software than can back up these Casio diaries. The 13 inches of cable in this converter were practical with the Traveling Software serial cable I used it with.

Works as advertised. On windows 7, driver will download automatically and create a virtual port. The virtual port acts like a physical port for all applications.

Das Teil ist wirklich brauchbar. Das Kabel ist zwar kurz, macht aber nichts, wenn man z.B. eine Telefonanlage konfigurieren will, schließt man nicht das Adapterkabel direkt an die Anlage an, sondern zunächst das zur Anlage gehörende serielle Kabel (9 Pin-Stecker - sofern noch vorhanden) und dann daran das Adapterkabel. Wenn dann der Treiber ordnungsgemäß installiert wurde, wird beim verbinden automatisch die COM1-Schnittstelle belegt. Da die USB-Anschlüsse aber in der Regel nicht COM1 sind, muss der Anschluss in COM1 umbenannt werden. Dazu geht man in den Gerägemanager, ruft den Anschluss auf und muss sich dann soweit durchklicken (bis erweitert), bis man dahin kommt wo umbenannt werden kann. Dann funzt alles einwandfrei. Ich bin mehr als zufrieden.

veri good product....... Packet has to be before it was opened! But the stuff is the best thing right now online stuff Mgana risky!.पैकेट लेने की पहले ही खोला जा चूका था ! मगर सामान सही था अब ऑनलाइन सामान मगाना जोखिम भरा होसकता है !

Nessun problema con Windows 10 64-bit: appena inserito nella porta USB del mio portatile con Windows 10, esso è stato riconosciuto automaticamente dal sistema operativo, senza quindi inserire alcun CD o scaricare driver. Riconosciuto automaticamente anche da Ubuntu 18.04LTS 64-bit. ***PRECISAZIONE***: il cavo seriale che viene emulato è "diritto", come del resto tutti gli adattatori USB/RS232, quindi se avete necessità di un'emulazione "incrociata" occorre anche un classico cavo seriale DB9/DB9 femmina/femmina, ma di tipo "null-modem", che trovate sempre qui su Amazon sui 2-3 Euro. Vi ricordo che il cavo "null-modem" è richiesto nella programmazione, per esempio, di switch. Nel mio caso l'ho usato senza alcun problema per programmare uno switch HP Procurve 2520: ho usato Putty con connessione seriale 8-N-1 XON/XOFF e ha funzionato al primo colpo; ricordatevi sempre di battere un paio di INVIO per iniziare la connessione, diversamente vedrete sempre la schermata nera. Se ci dovessero essere problemi, impostate anche la COM emulata su Windows 10 (es. COM4) con gli stessi parametri 8-N-1 XON/XOFF.
