Figure 12 • SF2-DMPM-DB Rev B Slave l C Connection
The SF2-DMPM-DB Rev B boards have a dedicated connector for the Devantech USB Adaptor (J25).
Use the included standard USB A/B cable to connect the USB-ISS to your PC. Install the drivers that are bundled with
the MPM GUI in the C:\Microsemi\SF2_MPM_RefDesign_v6.1\Devantech_USB-ISS_drivers folder.
After installing the drivers, and plugging the USB-ISS module into a spare USB port, find which COM port it has been
assigned to. This will vary from system-to-system depending on how many COM ports you currently have installed. To
find out where it is, right-click on your Computer desktop icon and select Properties > Device Manager. Scroll down
and open the Ports (COM & LPT) tab. The USB serial port COM5 is listed, as shown in Figure 13 on page 12.
