2 Handling Precautions
The EVA1084-A contains components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD). Please handle with appropriate care.
3 Quick Start (using USB connection)
(1) Connect the EVA1084 with your PC using the included USB cable.
(2) When the PC asks for drivers select the folder “
Tools\Drivers
” on the included CD
ROM. Note that two drivers need to be installed, the
EVA1084 FTDI driver and the
USB serial driver.
Note
: During the driver installation process your Windows system will probably
notify you, that the driver did not pass Windows logo testing with a warning:

Note
: After successful driver installation Windows might interpret the data
coming over the serial interface as a serial ballpoint mouse! Your mouse pointer
can start jumping around. To stop this, disable the according device using your
device manager. Leave the EVA1084-A kit connected and press and keep
pressing the reset button. You will find the device under “Mice and other pointing
devices”. Use a right click to open the sub-menu and disable the device.
