Installation Instructions ( P.C. )
Before plugging the adapter into the PC’s USB port, please insert the US232 Driver and Utility CD into the CD drive of
the PC. The PC will then display a menu ( pictured above ) showing the installation guides for the different versions of
Windows. These guides are written in HTML and will display on the internet browser of your PC. We recommend that
you review the installation guide for your versions of Windows prior to proceeding.
Plug the adapter into a USB ( or USB hub ) port on your PC and follow the procedure outlined in the installation
guide. Installation usually only takes a few seconds if you are already familiar with the procedure. Should you wish to
uninstall the drivers at a later date, please consult the uninstall guide on the CD which explains the correct procedure.
For your convenience, the US232 CD also includes installable versions of WINZIP 8.0 and Adobe Acrobat Reader
5.0 should you not already have these on your system. Also included is the FTDI Product Data CD which contains
data sheets, application notes and schematics for FTDI’s USB UART and USB FIFO USB devices. For the most up to
date information, visit FTDI’s web site – a convenient button is provided to launch your Internet browser and take you
directly to the web site.
Installation Instructions ( MAC / Linux )
MAC drivers should be downloaded from the “Drivers and Utilities” page of the FTDI web site. Instructions on
installation can be found there. Linux systems with an O.S. version of 4.20 and higher already have the driver
included with the O.S. – no installation is required – just plug the device into the PC.
