Gernot,

The USB interface will not change anything unless your computer changes 
something at its end.

Realize that the K3S or K3 with the USB interface still runs internally 
with RS-232.  The USB interface simply moves the FTDI adapter chip 
inside the K3/K3S.  You still have to identify the COM port that is 
assigned by the computer to your software applications.

Oh yes, a soundcard chip is also added.

73,
