Connecting the USB Cable to the BUF08832EVM
shows the typical response to connecting the USB DIG Platform board to a PC USB port for the
first time. Note that the EVM must be powered on before connecting the USB cable. Typically, the
computer will respond with a Found New Hardware, USB Device pop-up dialog. The pop-up window
typically changes to Found New Hardware, USB Human Interface Device. This pop-up indicates that the
device is ready to be used. The USB DIG Platform uses the human interface device drivers that are part
of the Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating system.
In some cases, the Windows Add Hardware Wizard will pop up. If this prompt occurs, allow the system
device manager to install the human interface drivers by clicking Yes when requested to install drivers.
