| 00:01
| Welcome to the Spoken tutorial on “Connecting SBHS to Computer”.

|-
| 00:05
| We would call Single Board Heater System as SBHS in this tutorial.

|-
| 00:12
| In this spoken tutorial we will learn to set up physical communication between SBHS and computer to install USB driver.

|-
| 00:21
| To work with SBHS, we would require SBHS with power cable and USB/RS232 communication cable.

|-
| 00:35
| On a windows machine, we would also require FTDI Virtual Com Port USB driver corresponding to the OS on your computer

|-
| 00:44
|You may download it from : [www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm]

|-
| 00:54
| Let me show you this website

|-
| 00:59
| On this web site, scroll down and choose the driver file corresponding to your OS.

|-
| 01:09
|I have downloaded 32 bit 2.08.14 driver file for Windows

|-
| 01:22
| The single board heater system and your computer can be connected using a USB cable or RS232 cable.

|-
| 01:30
|Identify the corresponding ports on your computer and SBHS.

|-
| 01:35
| Here is an image of the USB port you will find on the back panel of a computer.

|-
| 01:44
| A Serial port on the computer back panel

|-
| 01:49
| USB and Serial port on the SBHS

|-
| 01:54
|Please note that before deciding to use RS232 cable, confirm the availability of RS232 port on your computer.

|-
| 02:04
|After you choose between USB and the seraial cabale 232, you have to do some corresponding jumper settings

|-
| 02:12
| A jumper is just a small black color connector.

|-
| 02:17
| A pair of these is shown here, each jumper can connect two terminals

|-
| 02:26
| The connectors on SBHS with both the jumpers removed is as shown in the figure.

|-
| 02:33
|Here we can see that there are three terminals on either side.

|-
| 02:39
|We can also see the labels USB and RS232 being printed besides these connectors on the PCB.

|-
| 02:50
|The center terminal on either side is the common terminal.

|-
| 02:55
|Take a jumper and connect the common terminal of one side and the terminal closer to the label USB of the same side.

|-
| 03:06
|Take another jumper and do the same thing for the other side.

|-
| 03:11
|This is how you set the jumpers to choose the USB port for communication

|-
| 03:17
|Similarly one can put both the jumpers on common terminal and the terminal towards the label RS232 to choose the RS232 port for communication

|-
| 03:29
| I have configured the jumper settings to choose USB port as shown.

|-
| 03:38
| After the jumper setting is done, connect the power cable to a 3 pin 230 Volt AC house hold socket and the SBHS

|-
| 03:51
|Switch the mains power ON there may or may not be an ON/OFF switch on the SMPS of the SBHS, below the power cabel connector

|-
| 04:06
| If the device is succesfully powerd, the display should turn ON

|-
|04:12
| Here is an image of the display on SBHS.

|-
| 04:16
| Note that what is actually seen on the display may vary from what is shown. But it should certainly not be blank.

|-
| 04:25
| After powering ON the SBHS, connect the appropriate USB/RS232 cabel to the SBHS and the computer.

|-
| 04:33
| Here is an illustration of USB cabel connected to SBHS and the laptop

|-
| 04:42
| Always make sure that you First Power ON the device and Then connect the USB/RS232 cable.

|-
| 04:52
| Next we will see driver installation

|-
| 04:56
| Recall that the FTDI VCP USB driver was downloaded earlier from ftdichip.com

|-
|05:04
| You can also find here a guide for driver installation download the guide from [www.ftdichip.com]

|-
| 05:13
| Let us go to this website

|-
| 05:22
| In the left panel, Click on “Drivers”

|-
| 05:27
| In the dropdown menu, choose “VCP Drivers”

|-
| 05:33
| Click on the “Installation Guides” link on the web page

|-
| 05:41
| Choose the required Operating system document

|-
| 05:46
| Since I am using Windows 7 Operating System, I have refered to '''“Windows 7 Installation Guide”. '''

|-
| 05:55
| You may choose the Operating System Guide according to your requirment .

|-
| 06:00
| This guide has detailed step by step instructions for driver installation.

|-
| 06:07
| Let me show you the Windows 7 PDF guide file.

|-
| 06:14
| Follow the steps as explained in this guide and install the driver.

|-
| 06:21
| The typical steps involved are

|-
| 06:28
| Opening the device manager

|-
| 06:40
| Locating the USB port

|-
| 06:51
| Putting the driver path

|-
| 07:03
| And Repeating the steps once more

|-
| 07:08
| Once the driver is successfully installed,

|-
| 07:12
| You should get the device listed under COM & LPT

|-
| 07:20
| Let me show you this over here

|-
| 07:28
| Your device should also get a COM number.

|-
| 07:32
| Here for example it is shown as COM 3

|-
| 07:45
| Now, Let us summarise what we learnt in this tutorial:

|-
| 07:51
| First is Connect the SBHS and computer. This involves choosing RS232/USB port Jumper settings Powering ON the SBHS

|-
| 08:05
|Second Install USB driver, downloading the installation guide following the guide and installing the driver

|-
| 08:17
| Watch the video available at [http://spoken-tutorial.org/What_is_a_Spoken_Tutorial ].

|-
| 08:27
| It summarises the Spoken Tutorial project. If you do not have good bandwidth, you can download and watch it

|-
| 08:37
| The Spoken Tutorial Project Team conducts workshops using spoken tutorials, gives certificates to those who pass an online test

|-
