i got an arduino serial but it wont work on usb to serial
will it work on pci to serial card ( internal)
please reply
any other way do you know expt useing internal serial port because my pc dont have it
Arduino should work with USB -> Serial cable. Mightbe the problem is somewhere else. Just try the cable with something else or connect pin 2 and 3 and see if you recive back the same data, you sent to serial port.
please send detail how do pin stuff
do i need to short 2 and 3 pin of I/O or serial
its max232 based and error is
The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request.
You need to make sure you have installed the USB drivers. So that when you plug it in there is an extra COM port showing up in the hardware configuration window in the system control panel.
Next use hyper terminal and select this extra COM port, use no handshaking and connect pins 2 & 3 together on the Output of the USB / Serial adapter. If it is working you should see on the screen what ever you type.
