USB to Serial adapter to SN10 Success Report
After several days trying to get Windows 7 64 bit to connect to an SN10

You should have just bought the USB adapter from Paul R and you would never have to deal with all that other stuff, just a USB stick.

USB to Serial adapter to SN10 Success Report
Hi,
I can't get the Keyspan USA-19HS USB to serial adapter to work with an SN10. It connects, but waypoint transfer attempts failed. I am using Windows 7 64-bit with the appropriate drivers from Keyspan. The Keyspan adapter works great for me with all other soaring instruments - just not the SN10. The same was true for me with Windows Vista 32-bit. In the past I had used and recommended the Belkin F5U409 USB adapter for use with ILEC SN10 units. It worked great for me with Windows Vista 32-bit. But Belkin doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit). Does anyone have any suggestions for connecting a Windows 7 64-bit machine to an SN10? Of course, the ILEC SN10 USB adapter makes this all unnecessary, but I get this question from customers often and want to be able to recommend a solution for them that costs less than the very nice, but expensive ILEC option.

USB to Serial adapter to SN10 Success Report
Hi,
This is an update to the note below. Dave Nadler reports that the USB adapter in the link below is said to work with the SN10. I have ordered one to test. I'll update my web site after I test it. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003N9TYW0/...C1_cs_sce_dp_2 Also, I found the post below from Walt Rogers with links to USB adapters that he says work with his SN10. Best Regards, Paul Remde Cumulus Soaring, Inc. __________________________________________________ ________ FYI, recently I upgraded my notebook to Windows 7 64bit. I've found a good reliable USB serial convertor that works "out of the box" on Windows 7 even the 64 bit version. USB to Serial Adapter - Mini PRO - $27.50 http://www.usconverters.com/index.ph...ducts _id=244 Another one almost identical but with a cable USB to Serial Adapter - Professional - $34.95 http://www.usconverters.com/index.ph...ducts _id=325 This convertor has a very well written device driver that is maintained and kept up to date. My older Belkin convertor stopped working when I changed to Windows 7 64bit. Also, it wouldn't work on my Volkslogger, so I had to use a PCMIA serial card with WinXP (the PCMIA card doesn't work anymore in Windows 7 64bit). These USB serial convertors from usconverters.com work just fine on everything I need (Volkslogger and SN10B software/waypoints loading). With the Volkslogger, download used to be extremely slow. Now, I've found a driver setting on the Mini PRO which speeds up the download! It was a "Latency Timer" (msec) changed from 16 to 1. So... if you're having problems with USB to RS232 convertors, give these a try. Walt Rogers, WX __________________________________________________ __________________ "Paul Remde" wrote in message ...
