USB for HS15 Plus??

You can go a couple of different directions here.

First, you could install a couple Serial ports in the computer.

Second, Gerber has a Serial to USB cable that they sell. If you go this route, you will need to keep the old cable connected to the HS15+ and then use the Gerber cable between the old cable and the USB port in the computer.

serial port card

I have a Dell running 32 bit Vista and tried a Roswill dural serial port PCI RC-301. I tried both of my two available slots and both times I get hardware conflicts. The computer will not even boot with the card in.

I hear that the card is better than the adapter cable in slowing down the baud rate to avoid flooding the plotter.

Can anyone recommend a serial port card?
