ok, got out my cables and whatnot to run my cat 5, and the USB485 converter is GONE.  no clue where it went.  it all goes in a bin.... AWOL.

 

am I hosed?  is there anything over the counter, computer store that can do this?  I am running straight off a laptop, to 2 controllers daisy chained.. nothing wierd... any options?

 

I am in Sacramento....

computer won't talk to the controllers without one.  You can contact LOR and see if they can ship one fast.  Some people even have backup converters for the any time their one might quit working.  I have one myself.  It's happened to some before.

I had 2 of the normal ones (only using 1) last two years. Knew I wanted to add another slow network and a 500k network for this year. Ordered two high speed USBs so not only would I have a spare, but it would be a high speed spare - which I could use for any of them. Now I do have another advantage in that I run lights year round so all three active USB adapters are hooked up all the time. At least I know where they are!

Very cheap insurance.

Glad you found yours.
