RS232 Communication Utilizing a USB A to RS232
Adapter
Another method for communicating to the GP Flow instrument is to
utilize a USB to RS232 adapter and then communicate to the
computer using RS232 protocols.
The first step is to connect a USB to RS232 converter to the GP Flow
instrument. The converter must be based on the FTD based drivers
for it to function with the GP Flow instrument. TSI sells a converter
tested to work with the instrument P/N 5000-RS232. After attaching
the converter, the GP Flow instrument must be rebooted. See
graphic below.

The 5000 Series instrument must be rebooted after
attaching the USB to RS232 adapter.
Once the meter has been rebooted, a DB9 Null modem serial cable
can be attached to the computer.
I n f o r m a t i o n
The serial cable between the GP Flow instrument and
the computer must be a null modem cable.
