I'd like to build a serial connection over USB - so one adapter connected to a usb port of the fsg, one connected to a usb port on my local computer and both adapters connected. That means I have to connect those two serial ports somehow and my question is: Is that possible, could that work? If yes how? > > FSG-3 doesn't have an easily accessible serial port (it has a 3.3V > serial port which will only work with special cables; normal serial port > uses 12V). I have a self built 3.3V serial cable (made from a old mobile phone usb adapter), but just want to use that option if reflashing does not work... |
