[QUOTE="spiney, post: 174141, member: 192438"] I haven't tried this, but ....... The older type RS232 serial port just transmits/receives sequential "bytes" in asynchronous format (start and stop bits added), basically it's the serial port of a UART chip. USB is more complicated, with a device addressing system (very like Appletalk). Voltage levels should be compatible for slow speeds, even though it's a balanced/unbalanced connection. The question is, can you either turn off device addressing (operate in "older serial mode"), or if not will the Technosat just ignore it? [/QUOTE]
