Here are the latest step by step instructions for installing a USB to serial cable plus identifying and changing your com port number. This works with all Windows operating systems.

The following procedure works with all of our cables including the Allen Bradley 1747-UIC, 1761-CBL-PM02, 1747-CP3, and 2711-NC13

For most of these operating systems two types of driver are available: Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers and direct (D2XX) drivers. The VCP driver emulates a standard PC serial port such that the USB device may be communicated with as a standard RS232 device. The D2XX driver allows direct access to a USB device via a DLL interface. On mobile editions of Windows, such as Windows 10 Mobile, only drivers that are part of the operating system are loaded. Unlike desktop editions, it is not possible to load a driver through an external driver package. With the new in-box INF, Usbser.sys is automatically loaded if a USB-to-serial device is detected on the mobile device.

1. To begin, click the start menu and type 'Device Manager' and click the Device Manager link.

2. Without your USB to serial adapter plugged in, your Device Manager should look something like below.

There is no need to use any CD as the drivers automatically download through your operating system. Full RS-530 Interface Implemented to Simplify Cabling (OMG-USB-485-1) Field Selectable Interface (OMG-USB-485-1) High Speed UART with 128 byte TX FIFO and 384 byte RX; FIFO Supporting Standard PC Data Rates up to 460.8K bps (OMG-USB- 232-1) or 921K bps (OMG-USB-485-1) 1.8 M (6') High Quality USB Cable Included; Includes Driver and Utility. The software driver is properly installed, but the USB-RS232 adaptor does not work as expected One of the common reasons that software may not work as expected with a USB-Serial adaptor when the devcie is properly installed, is many older programs (and even some new ones) only support a limited number of COM ports (e.g. Only COM1 - COM4).

3. Plug your USB to serial cable into your PC's USB port. Chances are the drivers are already installed. Look for it to show up under 'Ports (COM & LPT)'. If it does, then note the COM number at the end of the description and proceed to the software you are using it in. If it doesn't show up under 'Ports (COM & LPT)' then proceed to step 4.

4. If your cable does not show up under 'Ports (COM & LPT)' of the Device Manager then you need to install the drivers. They can be found in the PLC Cable Drivers section of our Drivers, Software, and Manuals page. Download them and extract the zip file to your PC.

5. Navigate to the 'Drivers for manual installation' folder and you will find two folders named CH340 and CP210.

6. Double click on the CH340 folder and you will find an EXE file in it. Right click it and select 'Run as Administrator'. Note that this will not work by double clicking the EXE file.

7. Now navigate to the CP210 folder and then to the CP210x_VCP_Windows folder. You will see two EXE files, one for 32 bit and one for 64 bit. Right click the one that matches the processor of your PC and Right click it and select 'Run as Administrator'. Note that this will not work by double clicking the EXE file.

If for some reason the above driver does not work, try one of the following:
Download for Windows 7/Vista/XP (32-bit and 64-bit - Alternate driver)
Download for Windows XP, 2000, 98/ME (32-bit only)

For older cables (purchased prior to October, 2010):
Download for Windows 7/Vista/XP (32-bit and 64-bit)
Download for Windows Vista (32-bit only)

Run the installer, then after rebooting, plug the USB end of the adapter into one of the USB ports on the computer.

NOTE: For Windows 7, please use RC build 7100 or RTM Final version. (Installer program will not run on early Windows 7 or Beta versions)

Check the software driver installation

1) Open the Device Manager dialog from Control Panel

Windows Vista: Start >> Control Panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
Windows XP: Start >> Control Panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
Windows 2000: Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
Windows 98/ME: Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> System >> Device Manager

The software driver is properly installed, but the USB-RS232 adaptor does not work as expected

One of the common reasons that software may not work as expected with a USB-Serial adaptor when the devcie is properly installed, is many older programs (and even some new ones) only support a limited number of COM ports (e.g. only COM1 - COM4)

If the USB-RS232 adapter is installed as COM5, it may need to be reassigned to COM1 - COM4 to work with some software.

The following outlines how to to reassign the COM port on Windows XP/2K/Me/98SE

Windows XP

1) Follow steps 1-3 of 'Check the software driver installation'above.

2) Right-click on the 'Prolific USB to Serial Port', then click Properties

3) Click on the 'Port Settings' tab. Click the 'Advanced' button.

4) In the 'COM Port Number' drop-down select the desired port number. For example if the software requires COM2, select COM2. Note the COM port must have '(in use)' listed next to it, if it does then another device with that name is already installed in the system. After selecting the desire port number, click 'OK.'

5) Click 'OK' again, and the device will show up as being on the same COM port that it was before (i.e., COM5), but should show up on the selected port name when the Device Manager dialog is closed and opened again.

6) Close the Device Manager. Launch the software to use with the new COM port.

Windows 2000, Me, and 98 SE (Second Edition)

1) Follow steps 1 2 of 'Check the software driver installation'above.

2) Right-click on the 'Prolific USB to Serial Port', then click Properties.

3) Click on the 'Port Settings' tab. Click the 'Advanced' button.

4) Uncheck 'Use automatic settings'.

5) Select 'Input/Output range'. Click on 'Change Settings'.

6) Type '02E8-02EF' in the Value box. This value will change the port to COM 4. If COM 4 is in use, you must choose another port. The values for each port are.

COM 1: 03F8-03FF
COM 2: 02F8-02FF
COM 3: 03E8-03EF
COM 4: 02E8-02EF

7) Enter the value, then click OK. Click OK again, then click Yes when the 'Creating a Forced Configuration' window appears. Click OK.

8) Restart the computer. The Device Manager can be checked, to see the COM port change.

Note: Adaptor may not be exactly as pictured above.
