GENIE USB Plug
& Play Cable |
| The GENIE USB Plug & Play
Cable connects your computer directly
to a GENIE board or kit, thus allowing
your flowchart or BASIC programs to be downloaded without the
need for an expensive programmer. |

 Using
a GENIE cable
|
|
 |
|
|
| On each GENIE board or kit
you will find a download socket (which looks like a 3.5mm stereo
audio jack socket). You should plug the cable into this
socket
whenever you are ready to download your program; the cable's
Plug & Play
technology will connect to the GENIE as soon
as the cable is plugged in. |

Further
information

If you are using the
GENIE USB Plug & Play Cable for the first time, you will
need to prepare your computer. This will involve installing
special information (known as a Microsoft Windows device driver)
that
tells your computer how the cable operates.
Normally the driver is included automatically when you install
the Circuit Wizard 3 or GENIE
Programming Editor software. However, should you need to
install the device driver separately, you can access the various
resources provided here.
Note that the device drivers provided below will not work
with third-party cables. |

driver files. |
