| The new FT232RL based
WytecUSB Adapter provides
a flawless USB
interface to Wytec trainers, but also to any microcontroller board with a
serial communication in TTL or RS232 level.
It works with all operating systems
including Windows 98, Windows XP, Vista 32/ 64 bit

conversion.
- Includes the SP232A to provide TTL to RS232
conversion
- Works flawlessly with all operating systems

Install USB driver:
-
You have to install the
driver for the FT232RL on your PC. The Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7
will search web and download the newest driver and install it on your PC
automatically as soon as you connect the WytecUSB to a USB port on your PC. If
not, or you have Winddows 98 or ME then you may have to download the driver
manually from the following link:
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
The easiest installation is just to click the link "setup executable"
-
Once the driver for the
FT232RL is installed you have to verify the installation See the
driver verification procedures at
http://www.evbplus.com/usb232.html.
The procedures are not written for the FT232RL, but can apply to the
FT232RL.
-
Once you have verified that the USB adapter is properly installed, you may
now connect the WytecUSB to your target board and invoke the AsmIDE. If the
AsmIDE does not communicate with your target board then you need to check if
the COM port number that is assigned by the AsmIDE matches the
USB-to-Serial COM port number that is
assigned by Windows' Device Manager. The Device Manager assigns the
USB-to-Serial COM port number randomly and it does not know which COM port
number that AsmIDE is going to use.
In order to find the USB-to-Serial COM port number, you can click through
control panel -> systems -> hardware -> device manager -> ports, the
USB-to-Serial COM port number will appear (In Windows Vista, you left click
on Start, right click on Computer, left click on propriety, then Device
Manager and then Continue).
For setting the COM port of the AsmIDE to match that USB-to-Serial COM port
number, you can click through View-> Option->Terminal Window Options menu,
then select the correct COM port from COM1 to COM8.
