 Attempting to become familiar wthe the PSOG, I have run up the example UART programs and they all run ok for RS232.

   

I also tried the USBUART and though it ran the driver did not install correctly. When I look in the Devices Manager (Windows 8.1 64 bit OS), I see the "USBUART" component and the yellow error icon showing it was not installed correctly.

   

The example program steps shown on the main page in Creator just shows to set the power to 3.3V and plug the USB into PC and identify assigned port in Device Manager, but not what to do if it does not install the driver correctly.

   

Thanks again for your help

 Dana,

   

I found a note explaining to set the PID to 8 for Windows 8.1

   

I did this and now the USB driver installs correctly and I can send data to PC and back using the USBUART.

   

Thanks again
