If you find that the adapter is not communicating after installing the driver try  
these suggestions.  
Installation Guide (this manual)  
The USB to Serial Adapter  
Driver CD  
Many serial devices and applications cannot work on a COM port higher than 4.  
If the COM port is higher than 4, you should change it to a lower number. You can  
do this through the Device properties.  
Driver installation  
Make sure that you install the driver software before plugging the adapter into  
the USB port for the first time!  
To change this COM number assigned, go to Device Manager under Ports and find  
the device, as above. Right-click that device and select Properties. Click the  
Port Settings tab. Click the Advanced Button. You will see a box in the lower  
left corner to assign a different COM port to the adapter. Please note this  
procedure only works for Win ME, 2000, and XP users.  
1. Insert the CD into your CD-ROM. The CD should auto-run and a menu should  
appear. Click the relevant product button, and then click the “Install Driver”  
button. Follow the on screen prompts until the installation wizard is finished.  
2. Reboot your PC.  
3. After the computer boots, plug in the adapter. Windows will find new hardware  
and install the appropriate drivers.  
If you cannot get the serial device to communicate, make sure the settings on  
the Properties tab match the ones required for your serial device. Also, under  
Advanced Settings (Advanced button, above) try backing down the sliders or  
disable the FIFO buffers (uncheck the box) altogether.  
(If the CD does not auto-run or a menu does not appear, click Start, Run, and type  
D:\autorun.exe. Substitute D:\ for the letter of your CD-ROM drive. )  
Finally, if you still are having communication issues, contact your serial device  
manufacturer. If our adapter shows correctly in Device Manager (per above), it is  
installed correctly and there is nothing further we can do. The problem is with your  
serial device or its software settings.  
To Verify Successful Installation in Windows®98SE/ME  
1. From the main desktop, double-click My Computer, double-click Control  
Panel, System, then Device Manager.  
2. You should see a category called Ports (COM & LPT), and a device called USB  
to Serial Port (COM x) (or something similar) where the x represents the COM  
number assigned to the port by Windows.  
Removing the Drivers  
To remove the drivers, go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel, and select  
PL-2303 USB-to-Serial.
