3) Looks like 5v0 only.
Must use the geekmaster level shifter with this one.
Thanx for your fast response

3) you can open the plug and rewire it to 3v. It has the chip PL2303HX on the board.In the controller description (http://bit.ly/1SgsG1z or http://bit.ly/1NidcdB) you can read:
"Flexible signal level requirement on the RS-232 serial port side also allows the PL-2303HX to connect directly to 3.3V ~ 1.8V devices."

Does anyone have experience with a converter with this chip (PL2303HX or PL2303HXD) and can confirm that it works?
