Appendix C. Install the USB Virtual COM Port Driver
The USB Virtual COM Port driver can be installed on PCs that run on Windows 7 (32- and
64-bit), Windows Vista (32- and 64-bit) and Windows XP operating systems. The proce-
dures in this section will guide you through the USB Virtual COM Port installation pro-
cess.
Windows 7 System
Observe the following steps to install the USB Virtual COM Port on a Windows 7 system.
1. Connect the S3F8S19 Development Board’s P1 to a USB port on your development
PC using the mini-B USB cable, as shown in Figure 25. When the PC detects the new
hardware, it will display the Installing device driver software dialog.
Windows automatically searches for the driver; this process can take a few moments.
Because there is no option to terminate this search process, wait for the search to com-
plete.
2. If Windows cannot find the driver you will see a message similar to the message in
Figure 26; close the Search dialog and proceed to Step 3.
