Verifying

a

Serial

Modem Connection

When attaching a modem to the serial (RS232) port,
verify that the port assigned to your modem is Serial USB
(COMx), where x is the number of the COM port.

If the operating system does not detect automatically that
your modem is assigned to Serial USB (COMx), run the
Hardware Wizard again and choose Select from the list
instead of Autodetect. Then, select use Prolific Device
from Page
as the COM port.

Your PDA

If the error message “Connection Not Established”
appears on your PDA, check that the COM port setting in
either your HotSync or ActiveSync software matches the
setting on the port replicator. See “Verifying Devices are
Installed” on page 18 to verify the COM port setting on
the port replicator.

Some older versions of the Palm

Desktop software are

not compatible with the USB to Serial conversion. Please
contact your PDA vendor for software updates.
