January 13Jan 13 It is time to replace my old 2413S. I have a new, unused 2413U. For use with EISY, are there any pros or cons as between the two?
January 13Jan 13 The advantage of the 2413U is that it plugs directly into eisy's usb port. The 2413S requires a serial to USB adapter cable.
January 13Jan 13 My PLM is several feet away from eISY to get it away from RF storm of equipment so I’ve stuck with serial to extend it via twisted pair cat5e cable. Likely just as effective with usb but just haven’t done it.
January 13Jan 13 Author Thanks Techman. Since I already have the serial adapter cable, that's pretty much a wash for me. Are there any other pros or cons?
January 13Jan 13 Possibly age may make a difference. If the 2423S is an earlier revision than the 2413U. Though recent revisions seem to have the problems resolved.
