QS2 UART Bridge (COM13) Driver

The QS2 UART Bridge (COM13) driver allows Windows to communicate with Henning’s USB-to-UART bridge through a serial COM port. It is intended for users who need to connect compatible serial equipment, restore an unrecognized USB connection, or set up software that communicates with the device.

Key Features

• USB-to-serial communication: Provides the driver interface needed for applications to exchange data with compatible UART-connected equipment.
• COM port access: Lets serial communication software use the bridge through an assigned port, shown here as COM13. The port number may differ on another computer.
• Windows compatibility: Listed operating systems include Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP. Choose a package that matches your Windows version and system architecture.
• Device recognition: Installing the appropriate driver can help resolve detection problems caused by a missing or incompatible driver.

How to Install QS2 UART Bridge (COM13) Driver

1. Check your Windows version and architecture. Confirm whether your system uses 32-bit or 64-bit Windows. For Windows 10/11 systems, note that Windows 10 is listed as supported, while Windows 11 compatibility requires separate confirmation.
2. Verify the driver package. Before choosing a QS2 UART Bridge (COM13) driver download for Windows, check that its supported hardware matches your Henning device. If necessary, compare the hardware IDs shown under Device Manager > Properties > Details.
3. Download from a trusted source. Look for the latest version compatible with your operating system. If a package is offered as a free download, verify its source and any available digital signature before running it.
4. Install the driver. Extract the downloaded files if needed, then follow the included setup instructions. If there is no installer, open Device Manager, right-click the device, select Update driver, and browse to the extracted driver folder.
5. Confirm the connection. Restart Windows if prompted, reconnect the bridge, and check Device Manager for the assigned COM port. Select that same port in your serial application and use the communication settings required by your connected equipment.

Keep a copy of your working driver before you update. A newer compatible release may address connection or compatibility issues, but it is worth reviewing its documentation first—especially when using older Windows versions or equipment that depends on a stable serial connection.
