Nothing else. I do have just that.

I have tried as well to play with a FTDI USB connector (plugs in to the USB port)
and that works fine. So basically I can connect my IAQ sensor on such USB to 
Serial RS485 connector and yes, I do get some: /dev/cuaU0 device easily that case.

But my problem is if I want to directly plug the IAQ sensor to the RS485 board 
provided by SferaLabs without using such FTDI USB connector. The SferaLabs is basically
another board which connects to the GPIO ports of the RBPI2. 

I cant make it run nor detect anything. Wonder if there is something else on the kernel
to make it happen
