Block Diagram
Serial Connection
The TRP-C08D has one DB-9 male connector and one 4-PIN RS422/485 connector.
The serial port is configured as a DTE (data terminal equipment) device. All
PC COM ports are DTE ports. A null modem cable is required to make a
connection between the PC COM port and the TRP-C08D serial port.
USB Connection
The TRP-C08D has a USB B-Type connector which is fully compliant with USB 2.0,
the full rate speed up to 256Kbps. Please using the USB 2.0 cable ensures the
TRP-C08D working fine.
RS485 Wiring
The RS-485 mode supports the Transmit and Receive channels using 2-wire half-
duplex operation.
RS422 Wiring
The RS-422 mode supports 4 channels with full duplex operation for Receive,
Transmit, the data lines are in differential pairs.
RS232 Wiring
The RS-232 supports 8 channels plus Signal Ground and is configured as DTE
like a computer. Signals are single ended and referenced to Ground. To use
handshaking, Flow Control must be set to RTS/CTS during configuration. Refer
to the Pin out table for connections.
USB Cable Wiring
TRP-C08D is true USB 2.0 specification; it also supports USB V1.0, V1.1
standard. It is strongly to recommend user use the standard A to B type USB
2.0 cable if USB1.0 cable can not work properly.
TRP-C08D Software Installation
- Step1. Power on and plug USB cable to TRP-C08D.
- Step2. Please download driver from http://www.trycom.com.tw/DOWNLOAD.htm. (See figure1)
- Step3.Perform pl254x….exe.
TRP-C08D Device Installation & Detection:
Connect TRP-C08D to the USB Host controller of the PC using a USB cable. The
first time you plug-in the cable into the USB port, Windows will start
installing the device driver software. You can see the installation status at
the pop-up message of system tray. After installation, the pop-up message says
“Your devices are ready to use”, Device driver software installed
successfully. TRP-C08D device detection can be confirmed by checking at the
Device manager. Check for “ High-Speed USB MultiSerial Compound Device” under
Universal Serial Bus controllers and you will find “High-Speed USB Serial Port
(ComX)” under the category Ports (COM). Here ‘X’ in ‘ComX’ represents the
serial port number. You can see the same in the figure below TRP-C08D device
detection can be confirmed by checking the Device manager. Check for “High-
Speed USB Multi Serial Compound Device” under Universal Serial Bus Controllers
and “High-Speed USB Serial Port (Com X)” under the category Ports. Now the
TRP-C08D Device is ready to use.
How to test TRP-C08D
Trycom Technology Co.,Ltd offers test utility, this is utilities may help user to demo and test TRP-C08D fast and easily. User may find the utilities in Trycom support CD or download from Trycom web www.trycom.com.tw , direct to perform TRPCOM.exe from the directory.

Loop Back Test Software
- STEP1 : Run the “TRPCOM.EXE” utility.
- STEP2 : Click the “Setting” to set the com port and baud rate then press OK .
Please note : “COM2” is an example of COM port number; the real COM number is assigned byuser PC. - STEP3:. Click the “Terminal” then select Loop back enable, the counter value and pass value will be synchronized counts.
RS485 test
RS485 test mode, it can be connected to RS485 Device, such as connecting
TRP-C28, send “$01M” instruction from the client side, when the TRP-C28
received command that will response “!01TRPC28” indicates execution completed
- Step1. Run TRPCOM.exe utility.
- Step2. Click the “Setting” to set the com port and baud rate then press OK.
- Step3. Send command “$01M” and press “Send” button.
- Step4. TRP-C28 response received
