2. Software Installation
Before using the ICD, we need to install the required software files and applications. Do not plug the ICD
into your PC until the install process is finished.
If you experience problems with the install software, please see C.1 Installing Required Files Manually in
Appendix C. Troubleshooting.
3. Driver Installation
Before using the ICD the device drivers need to be installed.
There are two USB drivers for Flash-Over-USB devices. They are:
USBMON.SYS
FOUSB.SYS
The driver files (.sys and .inf) are always located under the FoUSB install directory (For example:
C:\MTOOL\FoUSB\USB Drivers\) in case you are have trouble with the automatic driver installer.
First, verify that the Power Mode switch (S1) on the ICD is in the USB (Bus powered) position. Next
connect the ICD to your PC using the supplied USB cable.
If you are running Windows 98, ME or 2000, no intervention by the user is needed. When the ICD is
plugged in, Windows automatically attaches the correct driver for your device and it is ready to use.
If you are running Windows XP, the first time an FoUSB device is plugged into a different USB port on the
PC, the Windows XP “Found New Hardware Wizard” window will appear. Select the default option “Install
the software automatically (Recommended)” as seen below.
