b.  Ensure Figure 3 reads as follows: 
      Hex file: 

Arduino Firmware SEK002 Version 1.0.hex 

file path 

      Device: Uno/(ATmega328) 
       COM port: COM39
      Baud rate: 115200

c.  Click on the “Upload” button. When successfully 

flashed, a message similar to “14572 bytes uploaded” 
will be displayed, as shown in Figure 4.

Ensure you are not using VCP driver version 1.2.3.0. This 
driver, which is known to have trouble with Xloader, may 
already be installed on your computer if you have used the 
Arduino Uno Board for another purpose. If version 1.2.3.0 is 
already installed, go to your computer’s Device Manager to 
change the driver to version 1.2.2.0, which was downloaded 
in Step 1.a:
a. Find the device in Device Manager and right click on it.
b. Select “Update driver software”.
c. Choose “Browse my computer for driver software” and 

provide the path to the VCP driver contained in the 
software download in Step 1.a. The default path is C:\
Program Files (x86)\Honeywell\SensorEvaluationKit\
VirtualCOM. This will change the VCP driver to version 
1.2.2.0, which you can then verify in the driver tab of the 
device settings.

COM port

Ensure the COM port is set to the COM port identified in Step 
3. The port settings may have been set for a different baud 
rate when you installed your VCP driver. Use your computer’s 
Device Manager to verify the port settings and to change the 
baud rate to 115200, if needed.

Baud rate

Ensure the baud rate in Figure 4 matches the baud rate 
selected in the Device Manager port settings.

Bytes

The number of bytes given in Figure 4 is an example only. The 
actual number may vary according to the specific 

Arduino 

Firmware SEK002

 version you downloaded. This byte count 

may change as this file is updated.
