<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hello,</p> <p>I need to use the EL6001 to readout a serial signal from a voltage measurement device. I first want to get this to work with an usb-rs232 converter on my laptop with Putty so I can test the code and protocol conversion first on my pc. Unfortunately it does not work. I've used the beckhoff example from their site.<br/> The strange thing is, when I connect Tx with Rx on the EL6001, I get the data I send.<br/> When I do the same on the usb-rs232 convertor and manually type characters in putty, the input is echo't to the screen so the device on the laptop works fine too.</p> <p>But together, putty does not recieve any data. </p> <p>I've connected Rx and Tx from the beckhoff to resp. Tx and Rx of the usb device so the lines are crossed. GND is also connected.<br/> Connectionsettings like baudrate are also similar.</p> <p>So I am lost. Did anyone had a similar issue ?</p></div>
