using 'serproxy' with usb serial

[w2lie]

I currently have a 6 port serial card in my windows computer - and it works fine with serproxy + monitor to send alpha tags to my streams.

I picked up an Edgeport 4 port USB to Serial adapter. We use these at work and they are nice little devices..

My problem is, I can not get serproxy to open the ports. I constantly get "failed to open com port - connection refused" in the serproxy window.

If I use BuTel to read the scanner through the Edgeport, the data passes fine, so I know it isn't a com port issue..

Can serproxy ready serial usb ports? If so, how would I configure it? I've defined ports 11 - 14 as the Edgeport serial ports.

Here is my serproxy.cfg file:

# Config file for serproxy
# See serproxy's README file for documentation

# Comm ports used
comm_ports=11,12,13,14

# Default settings
comm_baud=19200
comm_databits=8
comm_stopbits=1
comm_parity=none


# Idle time out in seconds
timeout=-1

# Port 11 settings (ttyS0)
net_port11=5331

# Port 12 settings (ttyS1)
net_port12=5332

# Port 13 settings (ttyS2)
net_port13=5333

# Port 14 settings (ttyS3)
net_port14=5334

Thanks for the help.

Hmmm, I think this might fix my issue: Arduino Forum - How to config serproxy at "com10"

I will have to give it a try after work!
