I'm new to multi-video recording and I have a question - does the RS232 allow me to plug the USB end into a laptop and use with the software ProPresenter so that I can view each camera from this switcher? And also switch views from the software?? Hope I'm making sense...

Monoprice USB to RS232 DB9 Male and DB25 Male Serial Converter Cable

BEST ANSWER:No, the RS232 port is only for controlling the switch. There's no way to view any video over the RS232 port. Video only goes out over the BNC connector labeled "OUT". You can use software to switch the output but I don't see any documentation that suggests ProPresenter knows how to control this device.

USB to RS232 DB9 male(Serial) / DB25 male Converter Cable
I purchased three (3) of these USB to Serial Converters for our engineering department to use to program a six axes robot for a industrial application. They worked perfectly. Great price Great performance.
I am a Ham Radio operator and have a program wherein I can key my transmitter (transceiver) to send CW (morse code) with a computer program. Most modern day laptops no longer have the 232 printer connection but rather USB. I could not get the program to work with a cable I had so I searched on-line and found this one from Monoprice. I ordered it and received it and it worked as soon as I connected. I was very satisfied with the service and quality of the cable...5 stars.
Product as advertised. Price AND product excellent as usual. The only flaw is I ordered this on Thursday, August 18 and they said it would ship on the 19th. I needed it 1 week later, by the 25th. I choose 2-3 shipping. Monoprice sent the order slip on the 19th, but they didn't actually deliver the product until the 22nd. The post office took 3 days and it was deliverd at 4:15 pm on Thursday when I should have left at 3:30. Had Monoprice actually shipped it as promised I would have received it on Wednesday with no issues. So, I got the product in time to meet my customers requirements...barely.
PROS: Great price. Quality product.
CONS: Didn't keep their promise on shipping. If I don't get it in time the great price and product don't mean much. However, I will order again provided I don't have a critical deadline. Paying extra for even faster shipping voids the great price benefit.
