Program the FT232R

As default, the FT232R acts as serial port. But Tucnak uses Libftdi to access it in bitbang mode. Default VID:PID must be changed to distinguish Davac from other USB serial ports.

Linux

I'm pretty sure you can use ft232r_prog. But I have no experiences with it. If you try it, please let me (OK1ZIA) know, I will update this information.

Windows

Under Windows, use MProg. Download File:Davac4.ept and open it in MProg. Note on Windows XP you need D2XX drivers; on newer versions they are installed automatically.

Unplug all other FTDI devices and press the Program All Existing Devices button.

Install USB drivers

Linux

You have nothing to do, It will work automatically. Only on specific distributions you may have to set permissions to USB device, which is normally done by udev script.
