Close Windows Notepad, then right-click the USB device’s drive letter and
click “Eject” to safely remove the device from your system.
Insert the USB device into the SDR2-USB, connect your serial data source
to the DB9M connector, and connect power. The SDR2-USB will display a
left-to-right-to-left flashing sequence. If your data source is outputting data,
the front panel “data” indicator will flash as data arrives.
