The problem with USB-RS232 adapters is that there is no class compliant device, because there is no USB class for RS232 emulators. Doesn't exist, so every device you've ever seen or used is a custom USB device. The drivers for the FTDI devices ship with modern variants of Windows and recent Linux distributions, which makes it behave essentially the same as a USB class compliant device, but ubiquitous is not the same as standardized. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
