Ok - the FT4232H mini module won't even probe on USB :-( I have another FT4232H, which probes fine, but has RS232 transceivers. A board with - I assume - a genuine CH340G shows exactly the same problem. Tomorrow I will hook up a logic analyzer to see what really happens on the wire. -- B.Walter <bernd@bwct.de> http://www.bwct.de Modbus/TCP Ethernet I/O Baugruppen, ARM basierte FreeBSD Rechner uvm.
