TS-590S

To connect the TS-590S and a PC via a USB cable to control TS-590S, the virtual COM port driver 
needs to be installed on the PC.
URLs from which virtual COM port driver can be downloaded:

If you connect the TS-590S and a PC using an RS-232C cable, the virtual COM port driver does not 
need to be installed.
Also, if you connect the TS-590S and a PC via a USB cable and you use only ARUA-10, the virtual 
COM port driver does not need to be installed either.  If you use only the built-in USB sound function 
of the TS-590S, the function behaves using the Window’s standard driver.
To view the COM port number to which the virtual COM port driver has assigned the USB port of the 
TS-590S, open Windows Device Manager and check “Port (COM and LPT)”.  Locate the entry 
named “Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COMxx)” and “xx” in the “COMxx” represents the 
COM port number assigned by the current virtual COM port driver.
In the example of Figure 8-16, you can see the indication of “Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART 
Bridge (COM4)”.  In this case, “COM4” is the COM port number assigned by the current virtual COM 
port driver.

While the TS-590S and a PC are connected via a USB cable, the COM port number is changed if the 
USB port is switched to another USB port.  To view the current COM port number, follow the above 
procedure again.
