UPort 1110/1130
USB-to-Serial Adaptor
Quick Installation Guide
Second Edition, January 2007
1. Overview
Moxa's UPort line provides a range of solutions for adding COM ports
through a PC's USB port. The UPort 1110, previously released as the
NPort U1110, and the UPort 1130 provide single-port expansion, with
the UPort 1110 providing one RS-232 port and the UPort 1130
providing one RS-422/485 port.
NOTE
Before plugging the adaptor into your computer's USB port, we
recommend installing the driver first. Please refer to Section 3 for driver
installation procedures.
After the driver is installed, the adaptor can be plugged into any
upstream type A USB port, either on a PC host or on an upstream hub.
The adaptor is hot-pluggable, so there is no need to power down your
computer prior to installation. The Found New Hardware wizard will
automatically locate the appropriate drivers, and various windows will
appear as the adaptor is being installed.
After the Found New Hardware wizard finishes installing the adaptor,
the Windows Device Manager may be used to modify the settings for
the new COM port. The new COM port will be listed under Ports
(COM & LPT).
