5.1 Installing Windows drivers and Telegesis Terminal on a
laptop PC
The most common use of the ETRX2CF running under Windows is when
the card has been installed in a laptop computer using a PCMCIA adapter
suitable for
CF™ Type II format cards.
Go to
www.telegesis.com/ZigBee/CFV2.htm
, select “Download ETRX2CF
and ETRX2CF-PA Version 2 driver
”, download and unzip the ETRX2CF driver package.
After insertion of the card, Windows® will prompt that new
hardware has been found. When the new hardware wizard
prompts you, simply select the location of the unzipped
driver package.
When installing the driver under Windows XP® or Windows
Vista you will be informed that the driver has not passed
the Windows logo test. When this happens simply press
„continue‟ to finalise the driver installation. The standard
Telegesis Terminal Application software available from our
web site will support the ETRX2CF card after the driver has
been installed.
In order to find the identity/number of the virtual COM port assigned to the card, open the Device
Manager under the Windows Computer Management screen (Figure 1) and click on the Ports
(COM and LPT) section where you should find the new virtual COM port. By double clicking on the
entry of the virtual COM port, you can also change the number assigned to the virtual COM port by
entering the advanced setup of the device.

Once Telegesis Terminal has been started and the correct COM port selected (Figure 2), the
Terminal software can be used to control the ETRX2CF card as per the Development Kit Manual
and the AT Command Manual.
