How to use

Install the card into an available PCIe x1 slot on the motherboard or into a larger PCIe slot if necessary. Choose and attach the appropriate bracket (standard or low profile) to fit the PC case. Secure the card with a retaining screw, boot the system and install any required drivers for your operating system (supported: Windows 10, 8, 8.1). Connect RS-232 serial devices to the external ports using standard serial cables and configure serial communication parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) in the device manager or your application.

Recommendations

Use shielded serial cables and avoid routing them alongside high-power cables to minimize interference; verify COM port assignments after driver installation to ensure correct device mapping.
