Installing the USB-to-Serial Driver (Optional)
The PX2/PX3 can emulate a USB-to-serial converter over a
USB connection. A USB-to-serial driver named "Dominion
PX2 Serial Console" is required for Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating systems.
Download the Windows driver for USB serial console from the
Raritan website's
Support page
(
http://www.raritan.com/support/
). The downloaded driver's
name is
dominion-serial-setup-<n>.exe, where <n>
represents the file's version number.
There are two ways to install this driver: automatic and
manual installation. Automatic driver installation is highly
recommended.
Automatic driver installation in Windows
®
:
1.
Make sure the PX2/PX3 is NOT connected to the computer
via a USB cable.
2.
Run dominion-serial-setup-<n>.exe on the computer and
follow online instructions to install the driver.
Note: If any Windows security warning appears, accept it
to continue the installation.
3.
Connect the PX2/PX3 to the computer via a USB cable. The
driver is automatically installed.
Note: Manual installation is required only if the automatic
installation fails. See the section titled "Installing the
USB-to-Serial Driver (Optional)" in the online help for manual
installation procedure.
In Linux:
No additional drivers are required, but you must provide the
name of the tty device, which can be found in the output of the
"dmesg" after connecting the PX2/PX3 to the computer.
