Driver Installation for Windows
For proper operation under Windows operating systems, you need to install
the matching driver. The installation is based on the CDC driver (standard
driver of the operating system), which emulates a virtual RS232 port for the
communication with the USB port. When connecting the interface to the
computer, Windows generates a virtual COM port that can be accessed by
any application just like a real RS232 port. This manual will cover the
Windows 7 installation process, by way of example. Other operating systems
will be similar.
Please follow the steps below for installing the drivers:
1
Download the driver software from the internet www.eurolite.de
download section of the product.
2
Copy and extract the archive to your computer (e.g. Desktop).
3

4
Open the device manager where the interface is listed under Other
Devices as
