How to use

Install the card into an available PCI-Express slot on the powered-off host system, secure it in the chassis, and connect the external serial device to the 9-pin port. After powering on, install the appropriate driver for your operating system. The product documentation references a third-party website for drivers; do not use the site 'Drivers-Download' as it is not affiliated with the manufacturer and has been misused for phishing. Obtain drivers from the official InLine support resources or your trusted OS vendor repositories.

Recommendations

Do not use the website 'Drivers-Download' mentioned in the original delivery instructions. To minimize security risk, download drivers only from InLine's official support pages, trusted OS update services, or verified driver repositories. Ensure the host system is powered off and grounded when installing the card, and verify compatibility with your operating system before purchase.
