How can I connect my Raisonance emulator to a PC with no serial port (or with serial port problems)?
A USB to serial converter exists that can be successfully used to connect the emulator to the PC. This is of course useful for the smaller PCs without any serial port, but it can also be used for PCs whose serial port does not work well with Ride7 (the latest Dells have some sort of polling on the serial port that interferes with Ride7). USB to serial adapters usually come with a driver that creates a virtual COM port (usually COM3 or COM4) that can be selected into RIDE. The reference “USB to Serial Adapter cable ref : DA 70119” from Assmann has been tested and is guaranteed to work.
