Installing the FTDI USB-to-UART Driver

An FTDI USB-to-UART driver is required to allow your PC to communicate through its
USB port to the on-chip UART of the ZGATE Embedded Security MCU. Observe the fol-
lowing procedure to perform these connections.

1. Ensure that the USB cable is not plugged in to the ZGATE Embedded Security Devel-

opment Board’s P3 connector.

2. Navigate to the following filepath and double-click the CDM20802_setup.exe file to

begin the driver installation.

\device drivers\FTDI Uart

\Device Drivers\FTDI Uart

3. The installation process will begin and you should observe output similar to the fol-

lowing messages on the screen of your PC:

32-bit OS detected

\dpinstx86.exe

Installation driver

FTDI CDM driver installation process completed...

4. When the installation is complete, plug in the Mini-B connector of the second USB

cable into the Board, and the larger A connector into the USB port of your PC.

5.

If the driver installation was successful, the Ports (COM & LPT) section of the Device Man-
ager will display USB Serial Port (COMx) or similar message, as highlighted in Figure 2.
