Hello.  This is not a problem but more a question.  Has the ability to connect this laptop to a serial port changed?  If so, how do I accomplish it?  Thank you.

 

HP Pavilion Laptop, 15.6" FHD Touchscreen, 13th Gen Intel Core i7-1355U Processor.

You can use USB-Serial adapter. The problem is not all adapters are the same. I used to carry 3 different adapters, looked they are the same but the IBM adapter won't work on Thales adapter and vice versa. They put their products to network now.

 

Regards.

Hello.  That won't work.  The other end of my pc will be a device that uses USB Port Type B.  What kind of adapter exactly?
