Robert, You have to install the FTDI drivers first. You can get them from: https://ftdichip.com/drivers. Willem, PE1NSU Op 7-3-2021 om 7:05 schreef Robert Raymond:

The ThumbDV™ uses FTDI chips. On Linux and MacOS typically no driver install is required. On Windows, the driver should be installed by the OS, but if it can't be located, then use this

Just tried to install my Thumbdv (DV3000U) on a new computer and it won't find the drivers. Can anyone point me to where I can download them? Thanks 73 W7RJR

I should also note that all ThumbDVs use the same FTDI chip. The baud rate change was simply a strapping option on the AMBE3000 chip 73, Bryan K7UDR NW Digital Radio

I guess my question is not worth a reply. Device only works in a 2.0 port or earlier.

John, Ok - downloaded the test.exe and ran it - plugged in the com port - then baud rate - then it ran and closed immediately . . . . was not able to see anything - so I am guessing its bad for that

Yes - it appears as a com port - will look for the test.exe file . . . . and double check the baud rate . .. . Thanks Bruce 7 3 W6JJ

no - a USB 3.0 port

Does it appear as a COM port when you plug it in? If it is very old, you may need to switch to 230400 baud. (Turn serial off, goto Menu -> Setup then under AMBE block). There is a test exe in the
