How do I Install a 3312 Serial Cable Driver?
The 3312 serial cable is a serial to USB cable adapter. The device allows you to connect serial-based hardware directly to the computer, even if the computer doesn't have an actual serial port connection. However, because you are converting the serial connection to a USB connection you need to install the adapter's drivers onto the computer. This driver is provided with the cable in a driver installation CD.
