Installation
There is a risk of a life-threatening electric shock! The electrical installation (such as wiring) of
the product must be handled by a professional, who is familiar with the regulations and safety
precautions.
Be especially careful when installing the product in an electrical control cabinet with dangerous
voltages.
Use caution when installing or modifying wiring or components. Always disconnect the power
supply before connecting, disconnecting, and installing equipment.
a) Wall Mount
Mount the device to a vertical surface. Check that the
provided screws are appropriate for the surface material. If
in doubt consult a professional.
Before drilling, always check for concealed wires or pipes
beneath the surface that could be damaged or cause
harm.
• Attach the wall mounting brackets using the included screws as
shown.
b) Rubber Feet
Rubber feet may leave marks on sensitive surfaces.
Do not attach the feet too close to the wall mounting screw
holes otherwise there will not be enough space for the wall
mount brackets.
• Attach the rubber feet as shown, at opposite ends close to the edges.
c) USB Cable lock
• The USB Type B end of the cable comes with a locking screw. This
prevents the unwanted disconnection of the USB cable from the
device.
• Make sure the screw is securely fastened.
Device Driver Software
The software installation disc includes drivers for Windows
®
and Mac operating systems.
a) Windows
®
Plug and Play
• When you connect the converter to the USB port on your computer, the “Found New Hardware” wizard may
automatically discover and install the converter. Allow Windows

to install the converter “Automatically”.
Each RS232 port will be discovered and installed.
If your computer does not automatically recognize the device when connecting to the USB port,
you may need to install the device driver included on the CD ROM. See section “Install Driver”
for further information.
• When the installation process is complete, the serial ports on the converter will appear in “Device Manager”
as new COM ports. See section “Checking the Communication Port" for further information.
Install Device Driver
