ICP DAS CO., LTD. User Manual/ Ver. 1.0/ Dec. 2013/ Page: 5
1.1 Overview
What is USB?
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is an industry standard connectivity specification developed by
computer and telecommunication industry members and is used to attach external peripherals to
computers. USB was designed to standardize the connection of peripherals and eliminate the need
to open the computer case in order to install additional interfaces needed for certain devices. USB is
designed to meet the Microsoft Plug and Play (PnP) specifications, meaning that users can install
and hot-swap external devices without requiring lengthy installation procedures and reducing the
need to reboot the computer.
The I-756xU USB to RS-232, RS-485 or RS-422 converter is a smart and convenient accessory that
allows RS-232/RS-422/485 serial devices to be connected to a USB-equipped Windows or Linux host
computer. The I-756xU provides a bridge connection that includes a standard DB 9-pin male serial
port connector at one end and a standard Type-A USB plug connector at the other. Simply attach
the serial device to the serial port on the cable and insert the USB connector into the USB port on
the PC. This provides a convenient method of adding serial connections to the PC without having to
install an additional serial card or perform the necessary configuration associated with a traditional
port connection.
This USB to Serial adapter is ideal for connecting modems, cellular phones, PDAs, digital cameras,
card readers and other serial devices to your computer. It provides serial connections up to 1 Mbps
of data transfer rate. And since USB does not require any IRQ resource, more devices can be
attached to the system without the previous hassles of device and resource conflicts.
The I-756xU USB-to-Serial adapter is fully compliant with the USB specifications and therefore
supports advanced power management, such as suspend and resume operations as well as remote
wakeup. I-756xU USB-to-Serial products are designed to work on Linux, Windows 98/ME/2000 and
32 and 64-bit Windows XP/Vista/7/8 operating systems.

I-7560U
The I-7560U adaptor provides a Windows serial COM port via its USB
connection and is fully compatible with both current and legacy RS-232
devices. The I-7560U features a full set of RS-232 modem data and control
signals (TxD, RxD, RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR, DCD, RI and GND) on its PC compatible
DB-9 male connector. It also features a high-speed transmission rate of 921.6
kbps and is powered from the USB bus, meaning that no additional power
supply is required.
I-7561U and I-7563U
The I-7561U/I-7563U module is a cost-effective solution for transferring serial
data via USB allowing serial devices to be connected to systems that use a
USB interface. By connecting the I-7561U/I-7563U module to a PC, a single
RS-232 or RS-422/485 port can be accessed. Both modules contain a
"Self-Tuner" chip that automatically tunes the Baud Rate and Data Format to
the RS-485 network. The modules are powered from the USB bus, meaning
that an additional power adaptor is not required.
The I-7563U is a USB-to-single channel RS-485 converter with a 3-way RS-485
Hub. Each channel contains discrete RS-485 driver IC, providing support for star-shaped wiring
network topology.

2.3 JP3: Output Type Selection (I-7561U Only)
The I-7561U module supports four different output types:
Type 1: 1-channel RS-485 output
Type 2: 1-channel RS-422 output
Type 3: 2-channel RS-485 output (This type supports star wiring network)
Type 4: 1-channel RS-232 output
The JP3 jumper is used to select the different output types. To select the Type 1 (1-channel RS-485)
and Type 2 (1-channel RS-422), pins2 and 3 must be shorted (factory default settings). To select the
Type 3 (2-channel RS-485), pins1 and 2 must be shorted. To adjust the output type follows the
procedure illustrated below:
Note: that the RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 output types cannot be used
simultaneously, meaning that only one output type can be selected at any one time.
Step 1: Removing both screws from the casing.
Step 2: Remove the top half of the shell casing.

ICP DAS CO., LTD. User Manual/ Ver. 1.0/ Dec. 2013/ Page: 17
To use Types 1 and 2 (1-channel RS-422 and
1-channel RS-485), adjust the jumper to the
position indicated (Pins 2 and 3 –Factory
default settings).
To use Type 3 (2-channel RS-485), adjust the
jumper to the position indicated (Pins 1 and 2).
Note:
1. There is no need to reboot the module once the jumper settings have been
adjusted.
2. For more detailed information regarding the pin assignments, refer to Sec. 2.4.2
“I-7561U Pin Assignments”.
Step 3: To adjust the JP3 jumper to the position indicated.
