Serial installation
A serial ATR110 communicates directly with the COM port and does not require any special
software or drivers to be loaded.
1. Switch off the computer.
2. Connect the serial cable to a COM port on the computer and finger-tighten the two thumbscrews
to secure the connector to the port.
3. If using a USB power injector cable, plug the injector cable into the coaxial power connector on
the Y-cable and then plug the USB connector into a powered USB port on the computer.
If using an Access-supplied power supply, plug the power cable into the coaxial power
connector on the Y-cable and then connect the external power supply to an AC outlet.
4. Once the device is connected, switch on the computer.
