5 Driver Software Set-Up

This section provides information on how to install, update, and uninstall the
iPort/USB software driver on a Windows-based host computer. Driver information
for all operating systems is available at the link below:

www.mcc-us.com/iPortUSB-2

1. Driver Install (Windows)

The iPort/USB 2 uses a Virtual Communications Port (VCP) driver that is
available separately at the link above, or pre-installed with the iPort Utility
Pack Software (See the installation instructions in “Part 2 - iPort Utility Pack
for Windows” of this User’s Guide). Pre-installation places the VCP driver
into the Windows Driver Store, ready for installation when the iPort/USB 2 is
first plugged into the host computer.

After iPort Utility Pack installation, the VCP driver may also be pre-installed
at a later date with the Driver Install short-cut on the iPort Utility Pack Start
menu.

2. Driver Update (Windows)

iPort/USB 2 VCP drivers are posted on the MCC website (www.mcc-
us.com/iPortUSB-2). Use Windows Device Manager (Start | Settings | Control
Panel | System | Device Manager | Ports (COM & LPT)) to see the current
version of the iPort/USB 2 driver installed on your computer, and determine if
newer driver is available. If a newer VCP driver is available, follow website
instructions to download and install a driver update on your computer.

3. Driver Uninstall (Windows)

 The iPort/USB 2 VCP driver can be uninstalled using Windows Device
Manager (Start | Settings | Control Panel | System | Device Manager | Ports
(COM & LPT)), or the Driver Uninstall short-cut on the iPort Utility Pack
Start menu.
