I posted in May that my computer was not communicating with the control box. Problem was the USB to Serial Adapter. I replaced the adapter. The same failure occurred this week. Both failures occurred after I tripped the 200 amp service to my shop. I was leaving town for a week, so I shut the power off to protect equipment from any power surges. The adapter is a TRIPP-LITE Model U209-000-R. My supplier reported the adapter is no longer manufactured. He is searching other sources for any inventory.
Has anyone else experienced this failure? Is there a substiute for the OEM adapter? I attempted to connect to my computer USB and directly to the control box USB, but software could not find port. I'm not a computer guy, so I may have messsed up. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
