I can see why this is not often the done thing. It's only a one-off project (at this stage) but I'm still undecided as to which route to take - USB2SER or the USB to Serial adaptor. PJMonty, from your comments, I assume if I use the USB to Serial adaptor then I won't need to do anything more than connect directly to the DB9 plug? If that is the case then I might be able to have my cake and eat it too if I just hard wire the USB to Serial adaptor to my board. Thanks for your input. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=271442#m271596 Need assistance?
