card, and either get a USB mouse, or a serial-USB adapter for the

You can use a serial to USB adapter if your computer has USB ports.
We’ve tested the Belkin USB PDA Adapter, part number F5U109. For
a list of some U.S. resellers, go to http:/www./shopper.com and enter
“F5U109” in the search window. Be sure to install the Belkin soft-
ware from the Belkin installation CD before connecting the Belkin
adapter to the computer. For a directory of U.S. and international
resellers, go to http://www.belkin.com and click on the Where to

my PC via a USB hub. I get a “Pulse sensor not found” message.
If the nger sensor is connected to a PC via a serial-USB adapter
and a USB hub, the USB hub must be powered; otherwise the nger
sensor doesn’t get the power that it needs from the USB port. Try
plugging the serial-USB adapter directly into the computer.
Another possibility is that the Belkin adapter was installed with a
high COM port number on a Windows XP or 2000 computer. To
check this, go to the My Computer icon. Right-click on it and go
to Properties. Click on the Hardware tab, then the Device Manager
button. Scroll down the list to the “Ports (COM & LPT). Double-click
on the Belkin F5U109 item. Click on the Port Setting tab, then the
Advanced button. Next to the COM Port Number select the lowest
available COM port, preferably COM1. Click the OK buttons and
close the Device Manager window. Run the Freeze-Framer program
to see if this solved the problem.
