Serial comm at its best
Great product great results
Michael Simmons –
Had some issues
Talked with their support team and found out it was something on my end. My computer would only recognize one of the 4 that I purchased, but after installing the converters on several other computers, I found all 4 units worked perfectly fine. I am extremely pleased with the purchase and the experience from the manufacturer.
