Hi friends,

As far as I know, for a laptop without any RS232 port, there are at least 2 ways to add one to it:
1. use a USB-to-RS232 cable
2. use a PCMIA-to-RS232 card
According to my experience, the first way doesn't work with Real-Time Windows Target. The software just doesn't recognize it. I heard that this is because USB ports don't support real time communication.
So my question is that can I use the second approach? To be more specific, I want to use a PCMIA-to-RS232 card to add a RS232 port to my laptop so that I can perform some real time control activities with an external microcontroller using Real-Time Windows Target. Is this possible?

Thanks for reading my question.
