Important: Check online resources from the Microchip website to download the drivers according to your Operating System.
CAUTION: The USB connector is not isolated from mains. Please make use of proper isolation (i.e.: USB isolator device) if using this connector when the board is not galvanically isolated (using a PLC Coupling design which it is not isolated from mains). Take into account the possible noise interference that these isolators could be adding to the PLC network. For instance, you can use the UH401.
