INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the MANHATTAN

USB to Serial Converter,

Modern computers are often not equipped with RS-232 ports, making

and speeds up to 225 kbps, easily expands a single USB 1.1 port to
connect and support up to four serial modems, barcode scanners, card
readers, digital cameras, label writers, palm PCs, digital organizers and
other devices.
The easy-to-follow instructions in this manual help make installation of
the converter quick and simple, so you’ll also soon be enjoying the
benets of these features:
Quickly adds 4 RS-232 ports to a single USB port
Versatile design for desktop or wall mount
