USB to serial port driver installation and precautions

Example: USB to serial port driver installation and Setup
First, the USB to the serial Port drive installation CD into the driver, and then find the appropriate installation file installation. (Generally select "304")
If the installation fails, you can try to unplug the thread and reinstall it first. Be sure to click Install after you see the installation is successful.
Second, after the driver installed successfully, open the software you want to apply. View the ports that they require.
After you have seen the ports that you want, open Device Manager. Modify the port of the line to the port required by the software. such as: The Port of the software is COM1, the port of the line is COM3, you change the port of the line to COM1.
Device Manager Opens the method: Right-click My Computer-select Properties---Select Hardware tab---Click Device Manager
Detailed modification method: After the driver installation is successful, there is a "usb2.0-serial" option under the "Port" key under the Settings manager. Right-click the item, select Properties, and then select the Port Settings tab-Advanced. Set in the drop-down box in the COM port number.
Third, the matters needing attention
(1): Note that the software port settings are consistent with the port-port settings in Device Manager. The most important thing here is to pay attention to the "flow control" of the Port Settings tab. This is the difference between the two in general.
Software settings must be set to "flow control" inside some mode Xon/xoff hardware none. Generally the case is none, but the software set if there is Xon/xoff this, in the "flow control" inside the choice for Xon/xoff, and note: The software inside the flow control if there is more than the item also ticked. Then we need to get rid of these items. In short, only leave Xon/xoff this one item.
Briefly describe the elements of an instance: Installation driver, a set of settings.
The most important thing to note in this process is that you must examine each item carefully.
