Troubleshooting checklist
- Device not detected: try a different USB cable/port, avoid USB hubs, test on another PC.
- Shows as “Unknown device”: reinstall FTDI/VCP drivers from FTDI’s site (matching VID/PID).
- COM port errors: in Device Manager → Properties → Port Settings → Advanced, change COM number to a free one.
- Driver blocked by Windows 10/11: allow app in SmartScreen or enable test-signing temporarily if needed.
- Software can’t communicate though driver installed: verify diagnostic app uses same COM port and correct protocol; try lower baud rates; reboot.
