The Belkin Dual
Serial Adapter is compatible with a great
majority of serial printers, graphics tablets,
PDA’s, modems and other serial devices. Our
main compatibility testing was focused mostly
on Apple, HP, and Epson printers, as well
as Wacom Tablets, Palm Pilots, and numerous
ISDN modems. As of now, we have not tested
all the serial devices that are available.
However, we are constantly testing and adding
new devices to our compatibility list.
Devices that are
marked with an ‘*’ must be attached to port
1 on the Belkin Dual Serial Adapter. These
devices will only work on Macs that do not
have built-in serial ports, such as iMacs,
blue and white G3’s, G4’s, bronze keyboard,
Powerbooks, and iBooks to name a few. These
devices are not Comm Toolbox Savvy, which
means they do not look for ports besides the
Modem and Printer ports. They must use a port
that is emulating the Printer port, which
is what Port 1 on the Belkin
adapter does.
