## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi. How long is the cable?**
A: This one I have is approximately 1 metre in length. Also refer to my user review for another cable to extend the distance.

**Q: Can anyone confirm that this really uses an ftdi chip inside and not one of those buggy prolific chips?**
A: The simple answer is, yes this is a genuine FTDI chipset. You can always determine the chipset by using Device Manager in Windows, scrolling to the COM ports section, and then right-click on the COM port select Properties, and then select Driver and it will display the driver details which should show the manufacturer. However, I must take you to task regarding 'those buggy Prolific' chipsets. The genuine Prolific chipsets are highly reliable, and you can download from the Prolific website a chip verification tool that will positively identify the chipset. There are a number of cheap Chinese clones that appear to be Prolific, but which will fail this test and are not reliable. Hope this is of help.

**Q: Hi. Would this work for a LG 47LD450 TV as it has RS-232C Connection at the back of TV for service and control purposes? thanks**
A: Probably not .You need a standard RS 232 adapter not a null modem wired cable.

**Q: Is this compatable for cutter plotters?**
A: I can't get it to work if that's any help
