Alltrax 400 USB to RS232 Cable

hitmanharleyk · 10-10-2011, 05:49 PM

Could some of you cart builder guys tell me why you have to use a certain USB to RS232 cable?
I have one that looks just like the one I've seen in some kits offered by Alltrax sellers like evdrives, but when i hook it up I get a "Motor Controller Not Found" error message. I do not have the driver cd for my cable and I tried the one listed to be downloaded.

They (Alltrax) recomend a $40 cable from Radio Shack, kind of high for a more than likely one time use.

By the way, my cart is a PDS with a Alltrax 400 DCX.

Thanks for your help.
