 +:!: The method in this application note is useful if connecting a Nexmosphere controller with a 3.5mm serial connector using a serial network server such as Moxa N-Port. From Blocks version 6.1 it is possible to connect a Nexmosphere with built in serial to usb contoller directly to Pixilab Players USB port. Please consult the manual for more details about serial devices in blocks.
