No
you don't have correct understand: you can not use EFB - as in your photo - to connect Drive Window Lite.

To connect the drive with PC you must use the RJ45 female connector - where you place the control panel of the drive.
And the out put port of your PC must be a RS232 port, not 485.

Without these configuration, you cannot connect drive with PC via Drive Window Lite.

I check DriveWindow Light 2 User Guide (Figure 1 RS485/RS232 Adapter)
we do not have port RS 232 in our drive (ACS 550).
If possible, please post a cable image to use.

Hi
no, you don't know your drive.... the RS232 port in ACS550 is the RJ45 where you connect the control panel.
Drive Window Lite request a serial port on PC, if you not have, you need a USB-232 converter.
The connection between drive and pc could be done with the cable that you can buy on amazon
