Description
The Kawasaki USB to Parallel / 2Serial enables your system to have the capability to communicate between the USB (Universal Serial Bus) port and parallel port and 2 serial ports. This device meets the USB 1.0/1.1 and IEEE1284 enhanced parallel port and standard serial port specifications. All the advantages of USB are available to peripherals with parallel and serial port interface. With Kawasaki’s USB to Serial/Parallel device and software, it is transparent to the peripheral and no firmware changes are required which makes it possible to convert peripherals with serial and parallel interfaces to USB interface with minimum modifications. This device is ideal for Legacy solutions.
