The MFE-USB8 offers an easy way to control eight relays through a virtual COM port. A simple ASCII command set allows the user to read and write outputs.
Drivers
The MFE-USB8 uses an FTDI FT232R USB UART chip bridging the USB to the internal microprocessor's serial port. The FT232R is USB 2.0 Full Speed compatible. Drivers should already be present in recent Windows versions. The latest driver versions for Windows, Linux and Macintosh may be downloaded from http://www.ftdichip.com/.
The FTDI driver creates a virtual COM port on the host computer to communicate with the MFE-USB8.
MFE-USB8 ships WITHOUT power supply and USB cable.
