So you are looking for a good low-cost USB Serial adapter (RS232) and you are asking yourself "Will a $10 USB Serial adapter cable work with my device? and will it work with Windows 10 and 11?!" Well read on and find out why you have to be careful about which adapter you choose. Why many low-cost USB Serial adapter cables does not work with Windows 10 and 11. The reason why many USB Serial adapters does not work with Windows 10 and 11 is because these adapters are made with a low-cost processor chip which complies only with the minimum requirements or less. The physical quality of the processor chip is usually of average quality however the drivers for the chipset are often poorly written programs which makes the USB serial adapter unstable and unreliable and not fully compatible with Windows 8 and other current operating systems. Because of this you will in many cases be unable to make a low-cost USB serial adapter work with Windows 10 and 11 or even earlier versions of Windows and you can expect some of the following typical errors:
Click here for a deeper technical explanation of these problems. So will the USB Serial adapter we are selling here work with all serial devices? No, however it will work with the majority of devices and we guarantee that the processor chip and drivers are fully optimized for Windows 11 / 10, Windows 8 and Windows 7 so you will not experience any driver problems. This USB serial adapter is designed with one of the best processor chips available, the FT232RL from FTDI, a British family owned company established in 1990 with distributors in more than 50 countries. This chipset is unique in design and has been tested and improved extensively over several years to offer compatibility with the majority of devices on the market.

Features.Our USB serial adapter easily adds a serial COM port to your desktop or laptop, for general office, commercial and industrial use. Serial outputs are automatically configured as additional COM ports with Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11, Linux and Mac. It is compatible with most GPS and PDA devices (Garmin, Mallagan, Palm), modems, printers, scanners, digital cameras and office equipment. This USB Serial adapter cable has protection against static electricity and surges of up to 15KV which gives you reliable data transfers and protects the converter and your equipment from damage due to over voltages. Easy driver installation installation and requires no IRQ, DMA, or I/O port resources which means that more devices can be attached to your system without the hassles of device and resource conflicts. Drivers comply with Microsoft WHQL and VCP for Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11.If this USB Serial adapter is not compatible with your device you can return it within 30 days for a refund.
There are so many options when it comes to transmitter module, it might seem difficult to choose. But really, they are all based on the same open source design by the ExpressLRS, the main difference is the build quality and certain features like screen, maximum output power and cooling. As long as you are getting one from a well established brand you should be fine.
If for whatever reason you bricked your RX, which could happen if you lost power or connection during flashing, you can bring it back by flashing via FDTI: -start/receivers/hmep2400/#flashing-via-ftdi.
Almost all modules support 250mW, some even up to 1W. Tests showed that 100mW can do 33km range with stock 2.4GHz gear. And it would most likely outperform your 5.8GHz video link anyway. Higher power will also consume more current, and reduce your radio battery life significantly. Higher than 500mW usually requires an external battery plugged into the module. A fan/additional cooling is recommended for higher than 250mW.
By enabling the option Dynamic Power, allows the system to automatically adjust output power depending on LQ and RSSI, this can potentially save battery life. However to do this you must have telemetry enabled.
If the elrs receiver LED stays on solid after powerup, without ever turning off, it is stuck in the bootloader, caused by the elrs rx pad being pulled low during boot.Common reason: F4 boards with an inverter for SBUS on one of the serial ports do this, even if you dont use the inverted pad. Use an entirely different serial port for elrs and it will work.
For the 5V fan connection, could you connect the fan wires to the ground and 5 volt pins in the module bay that power the module?If so, does voltage become present when external module is selected in the model menu?If this is the case, it might be easier to connect to these points via the ELRS pin receiving socket as opposed to trying to solder to the point that you did on the board.?
USB devices have high throughput, but they use a shared data bus. Data is wrapped up and transferred in packets. To handle the packets and move data in and out of the program accessing the USB device, a software driver is needed. The software driver sits between the hardware and the computer program you are using, and it must be installed and working correctly.
For USB to RS-232 chips, there are two primary manufacturers: Prolific and FTDI. Because off-brand chips with poor drivers are unreliable, Campbell Scientific recommends and currently sells a cable using an FTDI chip (part number 17394). We chose this cable because it uses a chip that has a certified driver available on Windows Update. (The older cables were silver in color and did not have a driver available for Windows beyond version 7.)
I have an issue where my prolific USB to Serial adapter stopped being detected as 'n "Ports (Com & LPT)" device. It keeps on detecting it is a " USB Composite" device, even after installing the correct Windows drivers downloaded directly from the manufacturer's website. Uninstalling it and reinstalling it doesn't help.
I get the same result on another computer also running Windows 10. It simply refuses to recognize the adapter as a USB to Serial device anymore and keeps on detecting it as a "USB Composite" device as soon as you plug it in after uninstalling it and restarting Windows. Windows also claims that it finds no better driver than the one currently installed when doing a driver search, even after installing the manufacturer drivers.
The USB Power Delivery Fast Role Swap switches provide a tool to simulate a loss of external power. They are currently available to use for correlation, validation and debugging of USB Fast Role Swap architecture. Please note these are not to be used for USB-IF certification purposes at this time.
When connecting or disconnecting the DC side spliced power line to the FRS Switch via the banana plug connectors, users *MUST* disconnect the AC/DC power adapter from AC power and ensure all residual power in the AC/DC adapter is discharged.

In this chapter we learn how to use the Python API for the PlutoSDR, which is a low-cost SDR from Analog Devices. We will cover the PlutoSDR install steps to get the drivers/software running, and then discuss transmitting and receiving with the PlutoSDR in Python.
The power supplied to the device is one of the most important elements for both flashing the device and for stable operation. You must ensure that the device receives sufficient power (current AND appropriate voltage level) to properly flash the firmware on the device.
Some adapters can be switched between 3.3V and 5V for the data pins, but still provide 5V on the power pin which will irreparably destroy your device. You MUST make sure the data (RX and TX) and VCC pins are set for 3.3V.
Many CH340G devices will not work, the "golden CH340G" has a voltage regulator on it to supply enough power to the ESP device - many do not. The ESP requires at least 150mA, many 3.3V serial programmers do not supply this much current as many serial programming tasks do not require a large amount of power. 2ff7e9595c
