UPort 1100 Series Introduction

Overview

The UPort 1100 series is part of Moxa’s UPort line of USB-to-serial converters. The UPort line provides a range
of easy-to-use solutions for adding COM ports through a PC’s USB port. Simply install the drivers, connect the
UPort to your computer, plug in your serial devices, and you’re ready to go. Programming is not re quired, and
you do not need to worry about IRQs, configuring a board, power requirements, or connection schemes.

The UPort 1100 series provides single COM port expansion. The UPort 1110 adds one RS-232 port to your
computer, which is the same type of COM port that is built into most PC motherboards. The UPort 1130/1130I
adds one port that is configurable for RS-422, 2-wire RS-485, and 4-wire RS-485 modes. The UPort
1150/1150I adds one RS-232, RS-422, 2 wire RS-485, or 4 wire RS-485 port to your computer. All of these
models can operate at speeds of up to 12 Mbps, which are much faster than the current maximum serial
transfer rate. The converter is bus-powered, so no external power supply is required.

ARDC (Automatic Recovery Data Communication)

ARDC (Automatic Recovery Data Communication) makes it easier to recover data tra nsmission, even if the
cable is accidentally unplugged. This means that you do not need to worry about reconfiguring complex
settings to ensure smooth data transmission. If the USB cable is accidentally unplugged, simply plug it back
into the same port, and the converter will automatically reconnect with the host and continue to transfer data.
This feature not only eliminates the need for reconfiguration, but it also reduces the probability of data loss.

Adjustable Pull High/Low, Terminator Resistors for th e RS-485 Port

In some critical environments, you may need to add termination resistors to prevent the reflection of serial
signals. When using termination resistors, it is important to set the pull high/low resistors correctly so that the
electrical signal is not corrupted. The UPort uses DIP switches to set the pull high/low resistor values for each
serial port.

To set the pull high/low resistors to 150 kΩ, make sure both of the assigned DIP switches are in the OFF
position.

To set the pull high/low resistors to 1 kΩ, make sure both of the assigned DIP switches are in the ON
position. This is the default setting.

Initial Driver Installation

The Documentation and Software CD contains the drivers for the converter. You may also download the drivers
at www.moxa.com

Use Windows Explore r to locate the driver installation file, which will be Setup or Install. O n the
Documentation and Software CD, this file will be located in the UPort 1100/Software folder, filed by
operating system. Double-click the Setup or Install file.

1. The Setup Wizard will open. Click Next to begin installing the driver.

. The installation pro cedure is the same for all Window s operating systems.

2. Click Next to install the driver in the indicated folder, or use the drop-down folder list to locate a different
folder.

ATTENTION

For best results, we recommend that you install the driver before pluggin g the converter into the USB port.
Please refer to the previous section on Initial Driver Installation for instructions.

Hardware Installation

After installing the driver, plug the converter into any upstream USB port, such as a USB port on your computer.
Windows will automatically detect the converter and begin installing the driver. When Windows finishes
installing the driver for the converter, it will detect a ne w COM port an d will then inst all another dri ver for t he
new COM port.

Windows 98/ME and Windows 2000

The following instructions are for Windows 98 and Windows 2000 systems:

1. After plugging the converter into a USB port, the Found New Hardware window should open
automatically. The USB icon indicates th at the USB port is being installed. No action is required.

2. Windows 98 users may skip to the next step. On Windows 2000 systems, a window will pop up cautioning
you that this software has not passed Windows logo testing. This is a standard warning, and Moxa has
thoroughly tested the driver for safe Windows operation. Please click Yes to proceed.

3. Windows will automatically detect and install the new serial port. No further action is required
