Troubleshooting tips for PC serial comm port, using a USB to serial adapter. We show how to install and test a USB to serial adapter, and how to test it by using a terminal emulator program like Hyper Terminal, or FunTerm in this case. By shorting across pins 2 and 3 you can verify that your USB to Serial adapter is working. You can also see if a serial com port is working by using an LED. On the male DB-9 connector, you can put an LED across pins 5 and 3 and when data is sent the LED will flash, or if it is the DB-9 female connector put the LED across pins pins 5 and 2, to see the data burst, from a K1 Fast Track pinewood derby timer.
