Locked Serial Numbers 

 

Many B&B Electronics USB to Serial Converters 

have a ‘locked serial number” version noted by the 

model number suffix “-LS”.

The LS version locks the USB serial number.  This 

lets multiple devices with the same model number 

be used on multiple computers without installing a 

driver for each individual product.

For example, in field service applications tools are 

often shared.  If the serial number was not locked, 

each converter would need to be installed on every 

PC in the pool.

Troubleshooting

One USB port is required for each installed 

device.  The USB port can be native to the PC or 

it can be a USB port on a USB hub that is

connected to a PC.

To verify the installation you may open the 

Windows Device Manager Scroll down to Ports. 

Expand the flyout window.  You should

see the new ports.  If there are no exclamation 

points or other trouble indicators ports are 

installed correctly and ready for use.
