no, its not a serial adapter because the original tx/rx signals arent even communicating like a serial connectiion until they go through the max 232, yes the prolific chip inside the usb cable is kinda like a serial/usb adapter except you just connect rx/tx/gnd on the MS board directly to the cable ...

im saying that instead of using the serial cable and the max232. you can connect a certain motorola phone cable directly to the rx/tx/gnd. the cable has a chip built in to it. you download the proper drivers, which i will find and post, and it will set up the motorola usb cable as a com port which ...

here we can talk about using usb cables instead of serial cables. its not terribly difficult i think. my honda ecu uses the same max323 adapter that the megasquirt has integrated on the board. i also use a motorola phone usb cable on the same exact honda ecu. its a little different setting up the ...

well since the serial connection is basically the same i guess if anyone wants to run usb cable instead of a serial cable we can get together and start another topic somwhere and try it out. i'd really like to get it to work for those guys who dont have serial ports. just another option to check out.

i was wondering how alike the serial connections are in the microsquirt compared to the megasquirt. reason i wanted to know was because i was gonna bypass the max323 chip and connect the tx/rx directly to a motorola usb cable i have and see if it would work like my honda ecu does. i use both a usb ...
