The Delta USB-ACAB230 (also known as USB-DVP) is a USB-to-RS232 converter programming cable for Delta DVP Series PLCs. It emulates a traditional serial COM port via USB, allowing modern laptops and PCs without a native serial port to program and monitor DVP PLCs directly.

• Dual-colour TX/RX LED indicator on converter box — visual confirmation of data transmission/reception
