USBCOM big problem
Martin Iturbide:
Hello Dan
I did light testing with this device:
- https://www.os2world.com/wiki/index.php?title=Prolifc_PL2303_USB_2.0_to_COM
I don't have any serial device anymore to test it out. My only test (if the machine does not have already a serial port) is doing a "mode COM1" if the USB-To-Serial device is disconnected I get "SYS0021: The drive is not ready.", if the devices is plugged I get something in response.
Regards
Dan Eicher:
Thanks, that's helpful.
I did a MODE COM6 - and it came up with serial parameters, which was helpful.
I'm using a FT232R, which the docs state has not been verified, but looking through usbser.txt, it looks to be the only in-production device supported.
Hopefully, soon I can get hooked to another PC's RS232 port and test.
Martin Iturbide:
Hello Dan
It's good that you got a response from the device. Please let me know the HardwareID and any remarks once you test it, so I can include it on the wiki.
Regards
Dan Eicher:
Will update when I have a resolution.
I put in a ticket with AN regarding FT232. They confirmed it isn't supported, but they would look in to adding support at a future date.
Dan Eicher:
I purchased https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0753HBT12 ($10).
Seems to work AOS (ZOC) <> Win11 (Tera Term).
These are available in quantity new from Amazon and utilize the PL2303.
