Serial Port Access
Hi, Just got one of the boards and have updated the firmware to support mbed. Can create and download programs, but I do not see the USB serial port device appearing on Device Manager? How do I get the board to support serial port function? Regards Phil.

Hi, Thanks for that, I thought I had installed the drivers before because I already have a LPC1768. I am using Windows on a Mac, it was being detected as a serial device under the Mac, now I have installed the Windows driver all ok. Thanks Phil.
