Review on πŸ”Œ Gearmo High-Speed USB to RS-232 Serial Adapter with FTDI Chip – Plug-and-Play for Windows 10/7 (32/64bit) by Josh Goldsmith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

He communicates in both directions.

The company I work for is currently using XP as its operating system and will upgrade to Win 7 by the end of this year. After reading the reviews and knowing the application/hardware I will be using it with, I wanted a Win 7 compatible device. So this review is for XP and if I can switch my laptop to Win 7 I will update the review. Installing the drivers was very easy. Plug in the device and let the system detect it. Select the option to browse the location manually, browse to the CD, select the desired folder, and then click Next. The link works and it has an LED to let you know it's working. I am connecting to part of the alarm system and am currently using TelNet to communicate with and program the APU. I see that I'm aware of any data loss or delay and I've had no trouble transferring it with this USB to RS-232 adapter.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
