4. Configuring Your Wixels
The Wixel Configuration Utility allows you to write and read settings from the Wixel. This section explains all of the
features of the Wixel Configuration Utility in detail.

On the left side of the window, in the Wixels box, you can see a list of all the Wixels connected to the computer
that are recognized by the Wixel Configuration Utility. The Wixel Configuration Utility should recognize any Wixel
that is in bootloader mode (i.e. the app is stopped) or is running an app that implements a single USB Virtual COM
port with a USB Vendor ID of 0x1FFB (for Pololu) and a Product ID of 0x2200. If your Wixel is connected to your
computer, but does not show up in the Wixel Configuration Utility, then your drivers might not be installed properly,
or the Wixel might be running an application that uses a different type of USB interface or doesn’t use USB at all. If
you have trouble getting the Wixel Configuration Utility to recognize your Wixel, then see
Section 10 for help.
