Other than that , there are some IIS members who are familiar with serial to USB conversion cables , they have a certain chipset and voltage that can handshake across the to different types of media connectivity
Hopefully someone will chime in
Good luck !!
The PC is new. It has 16G RAM and a i9 core CPU and an 1TV SSD. It has both USB 2 and 3 ports.

I need to change the USB from the EQ8 R Pro into a Com port so the SkyX can read and connect.

You say you have a procedure to do this?

I have 4 other USB cable mints and they too, will want to connect the SkyX via their USB Type a plugs.
