4. If using a USB cable continue with this Step to install the USB drivers, else continue at Step 5. Plugging in the USB ca-
ble automatically switches operation to the USB connector. The USB interface is based on an FT232RL serial-to-USB 
converter IC manufactured by FTDI. The FT232RL driver files are located in the i386 and AMD64 folders on the CD, and 
the latest version of the drivers can be down-loaded from the FTDI website, www.ftdichip.com. The drivers create a virtual 
COM port on the host PC. 

 

 

a. Power the 

Base

 using one of the supplied wall-plug power supplies. 

 

 

b. Next connect the 

Base

 to the PC with a USB cable. The PC will find the new USB hardware and 

 

open a driver installation dialog box. Enter the letter of the drive holding the kit CD and click 

Continue

 

The installation dialog will run 

twice

 to complete the driver installation. 

 

8.5  Utility Program 

 
The DNT Demo utility program requires only one PC for initial kit operation and sensor applications (ADC, DAC and digital 
I/O). Two serial/USB ports are required for bidirectional serial communications. Section 8.6 below covers using the DNT24 
Demo utility program for initial kit operation and familiarization. Section 8.6.1 covers serial message communication and 
radio configuration. 
 

8.6  Initial Kit Operation 

 
The DNT Demo utility program is located in the 

PC Programs

 folder on the kit CD. The DNT Demo requires no installation 

and can be simply copied to the PC and run. 
 

 

Figure 8.6.1 

 
1. Start the Demo on the PC. The Demo program start-up window is shown in Figure 8.6.1.
