The  USB to RJ45 cable part number is TCSMCNAM3M002P
The SoMove software is free online, however, you will need to purchase this cable to connect your PC to products via the resident Modbus port.
The USB cable is not required if the Drive has an available Ethernet communication port available. 
The drivers for the USB cable are included as part of the SoMove software.
When installing SoMove, make sure the USB cable is not connected.  Only after the installation completes should you connect the cable to  the PC.
