In most cases Windows detects the [[SimpleMotion V2 USB adapter]] as USB Serial port and is able to install drivers automatically. However, if not, download VCP (Virtual COM Port) drivers from [http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm this page]. The recommended package is the setup executable ([http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/CDM/CDM20830_Setup.exe direct link]). | In most cases Windows detects the [[SimpleMotion V2 USB adapter]] as USB Serial port and is able to install drivers automatically.
