EZB Connect To PC By USB

Hi,

I have followed the instruction to try to connect EZB 4 to PC by USB from the link as below: https://www.ez-robot.com/learn-robotics-serial-usb-connectivity-ezb-smart-robot-controller.html

But It is not works. I guess, I bought the wrong USB adaptor (shown as below) or something wrong in connecting. So, would anyone have any suggestion for the USB? (EZB to USB adaptor, GND to GND, RX to TX, TX to RX)

Hi Dave,

To simplify, could you please recommend a USB that is compatible with both Windows 10 and 11? Thanks in advance!

Hello Ricky,

This symbol means that there is an error with the driver.

The USB-UART chip has to show up under COM ports and have a COM number assigned to it in order to work.

Example:

Once the driver error is cleared up I recommend a slower baud rate as most USB-UART chips advertise to work at 1MBaud, but can't communicate at that speed.

The only chip I've found that can communicate at that speed is the Prolific PL2303-HXD (it has to be the D version)

Hi Jeremie and everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that you're doing an awesome job! I noticed that you paid attention to the small icon, and it's working perfectly. I really appreciate everyone's help here.

Keep up the great work! love

So, you have your easy b communicating with your PC through the USB now? So this is awesome!
