Thanks bjtrutor.

I received the USB version (which is really the exact same device with a different detachable cable), and using the same microstrain_3dmgx2_imu package, everything works as advertised. I'm pretty confident that this package has support for both the gx2- and gx3-series, based on a) it works, b) other posts on the internet say so and c) the code has special provisions for devices that identify as gx3-series.

So the question is then... how can I get the serial version (via USB adaptor) to work? (And I know the adaptor works, because it's being used successfully with other devices.) Or, should I just not bother, and go with buying a USB connector cable from Microstrain and move on with my life?
