> but I've not setup a 485 adapter and written any scripts to check it yet The KS-24361 discussions pointed out that you can just wire things across if you pick the right polarity on the 485 side. It works for me. I wouldn't want to count on it for use with long cables, but it's quick worth a try for a one-off setup. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam.

As I remember For rs422 receive plus to ground and rs232 to minus. For rs422 xmit take the minus to the rs232 line. This has to be a modern rs232 port that will work on 0-3V or greater. As Hal says it works over 3-10 ft. May go further but it is a hack. the price is right.
