MD-CC3/4 and Windows x64 systems
The older versions of the MD-CC30x-001 USB to SPI and MD-CC40x-001 USB to RS-422/485 communication converter cables were developed to work with Windows 32-bit operating systems. These cables must have the the internal ID reset in order to be supported by current Windows 64-bit operating systems.
How do I know if I have an older cable?
The most recent cable will install as 'Silicon Labs C210x USB to UART Bridge (COMXX)' in the device manager of your PC under Ports (COM and LPT).
In the case of MD-CC3 and MD-CC4 cables with the incompatible ID, when the device manager attempts to find the drivers and fails to install them, the message that opens will show the IMS part number: MD-CC400-000 or MD-CC300-000 on the dialog, as shown below.
Additionally, the part number will display under other devices in your computer's device manager.

Check the software driver installation
1) Open the Device Manager dialog from Control Panel
- Windows Vista: Start >> Control Panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
- Windows XP: Start >> Control Panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
- Windows 2000: Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> System >> Hardware >> Device Manager
- Windows 98/ME: Start >> Settings >> Control Panel >> System >> Device Manager
2) Click the plus sign (+) next to 'Ports'.
3) If the device is properly installed, 'Serialio.com USB Serial Port' or 'Prolific USB-to-Serial COM Port' will be displayed.
The software driver is properly installed, but the USB-RS232 adaptor does not work as expected
One of the common reasons that software may not work as expected with a USB-Serial adaptor when the devcie is properly installed, is many older programs (and even some new ones) only support a limited number of COM ports (e.g. only COM1 - COM4)
If the USB-RS232 adapter is installed as COM5, it may need to be reassigned to COM1 - COM4 to work with some software.
The following outlines how to to reassign the COM port on Windows XP/2K/Me/98SE
Windows XP
1) Follow steps 1-3 of 'Check the software driver installation'above.
2) Right-click on the 'Prolific USB to Serial Port', then click Properties
3) Click on the 'Port Settings' tab. Click the 'Advanced' button.
4) In the 'COM Port Number' drop-down select the desired port number. For example if the software requires COM2, select COM2. Note the COM port must have '(in use)' listed next to it, if it does then another device with that name is already installed in the system. After selecting the desire port number, click 'OK.'
5) Click 'OK' again, and the device will show up as being on the same COM port that it was before (i.e., COM5), but should show up on the selected port name when the Device Manager dialog is closed and opened again.
6) Close the Device Manager. Launch the software to use with the new COM port.
Windows 2000, Me, and 98 SE (Second Edition)
