CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
The USB LAB KITS provide 8 digital input / 8 digital output
channels, 8 analog to digital channels, and one RS232/422/485
port functions, which allows to connect industrial DIN rail
mountable terminal block adapter for applications of digital I/O,
analog to digital input, and COM communication.
The USB LAB KITS provides one asynchronous serial
communication ports (RS232 or RS422 or RS485), which link
the computer and serial peripheral devices such as terminals,
modems, serial printers, plotters, ... etc.
The USB LAB KITS provides Plug and Play (PnP) feature, it is
a programmable I/O interface card for PC/486, Pentium, or
compatibles. High speed 8051 uC provides USB functions run
at 12Mbps full speed or 1.5Mbps low speed.

DIAGNOSTIC UNDER WINDOWS
The USB LAB KITS can be install to Windows/XP via USB
plug and play function, please follow the steps shown in the
following:.
USB Test Program.exe is a diagnostic program to test your
USB products under Windows
1. For optimum PnP functionality, please install one card at a
time.
2. Windows/XP will detect the new USB LAB KITS card that
is installed in your computer, and will prompt you for a
proper driver.
3. Install Virtual COM port (VCP) drivers which is in Drivers
\ Virtual COM \ Vertual_COM.inf.. Virtual COM port
(VCP) drivers cause the USB device to appear as an
additional COM port available to the PC. Application
software can access the USB device in the same way as it
would access a standard COM port.
4. After Windows/XP has detected and configured all ports,
you may begin using the USB LAB KITS card. To verify
that the installation process completed successfully, please
proceed into the Control Panel / System / Device Manager.
5. Locate the additional COM ports in the ports section, and
