Installation

Connect the CBL-USB-RS232KM-6 to the target 
computer’s USB port and the control system’s serial 
port. If the control system does not use a DB9 
connector for RS-232 communication, wire a cable 
between the included adapter and the control system to 
create a connection to the control system’s RS-232 
port. Refer to the adapter’s installation notes to connect 
the pins shown in the following table.

Serial Configuration

The control system’s RS-232 port should be configured 
to operate at 9600 baud, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit. 
When programming a control system with Crestron’s 
programming software, use the two-way serial driver 
programming module to send mouse and keyboard 
commands from the control system’s RS-232 port. 
Custom serial commands can be sent as well. Refer to 
the CBL-USB-RS232KM-6 Reference Guide (Doc. 7854)
