Ah, that's interesting Lewin
I was asked that question just yesterday: "will the STK500 work with a
USB to serial converter?"
what brand did get it to run with?

Hello Don,

At work we use Aten USB to RS232 converters, they seem to handle
anything from Hyperterminal session to SCADA (Citect) software talking
to our telemetry rtu's or PLC's. I've never used it with STK500 - I
always make sure I got a "real" serial port on my computer but I'd say
they would work ok, I could test it as I have STK500 here.

I have a Keyspan adapter (I think the model# is USA-14W but it's at
home, I'd have to check) and a PalmConnect one, it works with both.
