introdUCtion  
Thank you for purchasing this MANHATTAN® USB to Serial Converter,  
Model 205146.  
Modern computers are often not equipped with RS-232 ports, making  
the use of legacy peripherals and communication devices more difficult.  
The MANHATTAN USB to Serial Converter, with its serial RS-232 port,  
easily expands a single USB 1.1 port to connect and support serial  
modems, barcode scanners, digital cameras, card readers and other  
devices.  
The easy-to-follow instructions in this manual help make installation  
of the converter quick and simple, so you’ll also soon be enjoying the  
benefits of these additional features:  
• Gold-plated contacts and rugged construction provide a reliable  
connection between the computer and serial peripherals  
• Windows compatible  
• Plug and Play  
• Hot-swappable  
• Lifetime Warranty  
System Requirements  
• USB 1.1 or 2.0 port  
• Windows 2000/XP/Vista  
Package Contents

• User manual and driver CD
