This review is from: 2 Port USB To RS232 Adapter / 2 Port USB HubSeems like a nice easy unit that is supposed to use Prolific drivers. The problem is, I could not get it to connect to either serial device. I went back to a separate USB hub and USB-Serial converters. This is supposed to do just that in one unit. Had to return, really worthless. Perhaps Windoz just has no standards like the Mac. I would avoid this product unless you feel lucky....
This review is from: 2 Port USB To RS232 Adapter / 2 Port USB HubBAD NEWS FIRST :
This is another example of some company's HIT-and-RUN strategy.
Make a (good) product but ABANDON SUPPORT as soon as it hits the market. :-((
TESTS :
I used this on a XP32 system and installation was not too difficult -- I used drivers I DOWNLOADED FROM THEIR WEB PAGE.
Repeating the installation on a Windows-7 system (32bit and 64bit) ==> NO DRIVER AVAILABLE !! But I have used the VISTA-driver and that worked. SO FAR. But it requires more PC experience.
GOOD NEWS :
Not many people have a use for this kind of USB & RS232 hub -- so I understand it is an "exotic" device.
I bought this so I can control my telescope and various accessories via a single USB cable
- RS232-1 ==> the RS232 port of the telescope
- RS232-2 ==> (optional) dSLRshutter ==> camera long exposure via "B"
- USB-1 ==> CCD camera for the autoguider
- USB-2 ==> dSLR or main CCD imaging camera to capture the images / SLR remote control...
