My comp does not have a serial port, so I bought a usb to serial connector in order to communicate with the basic x-24, but how do I change the comp port to usb instead of the default serial? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

> ... how do I change the comp port to usb... Windows XP will assign a COM port number to the UBS-RS232 converter when it is installed. Mine, for example, when plugged into a USB port on the front of my machine, becomes COM3. In XP, look in My Computer/Properties/Hardware/DeviceManager/Ports(COM&LPT). You should see an entry like "ATEN USB to Serial Cable (COM3)". Use COM3, or whatever yours indicates, in the Basic-X IDE. Other Windows versions are similar.
