G'day

I'm finding it difficult to research online the help I need to solve my problem I have no doubt it's something simple...

Here is the scenario, I purchased 3x20m lengths of RS232Male:Female and 3x Male:Male gender changers (couldn't get male to male 20m DB25 cable). I've also purchased a 4 way DB25 Switch Box to connect the RS232 cables into from my 3 machines, I've plugged the cable drom Switch Box to PC and here is where I am stuck...

I am about to purchase DNC4U as the software for this hardware and prog transfer from PC to machines however is it normal to NOT be able to find/see anything on the PC system if everything is connected BUT Dnc4u is yet to be installed?

Basically I cannot find my machines on my PC even though they are now all plugged in and connected machine > switch box > PC.

Is it because I don't have DNC4U installed yet that I cannot see the machines cause you view the machines on the PC with DNC4U?

Please someone help me out I'm all alone here!

Cheers
