You can either connect the PC directly using the USB-C port on the EmStat4M module or you
can use the micro-USB connection of the development board.
The micro-USB port on the development board is meant for programming the BT module,
charging, or testing the UART lines to the EmStat4M.
When using the USB-C port on the EmStat4M module, the communication on the PC side is
handled by the Windows CDC drivers. The micro-USB port works using an FTDI chip for USB
to serial communication. With both USB ports a connection can be made via a serial virtual COM
port to use a terminal program like Tera Term for example.
The following table shows the implications for connecting either to the micro-USB of the
development board or the USB-C cable of the EmStat4M module.
