Im doing my college final year project and wanna use RFID reader.
Planning to purchase it. So, I want to ask...
For the RS232 connect with VB using laptop, what requirement I needed?

Only this 3 item I needed? anything I miss out?

This might be your hardware connection,

RFID Reader RS232 ===> USB to Serial Converter ===> Laptop

right?

Maybe you need to modify the RFID Reader RS232 cable, please refer to the DIY RFID : Read & Display V2010

It should work. Anyway, try first.
*Don't forget to modify RFID Reader RS232 cable as I mention before. If you see the schematic, it will need extra component.
