Hi,

I have one of these FX2/XC3S boards. Is there a
software/firmware combination that would make the
board enumerate as a device with Multiple Virtual Com
Ports under Windows (2000 or newer)? How about using
the built in calsses/driver in Windows such as the
CDC?
I've look around and found something similar (not
sure it uses the CDC) done by another USB maker
www.ftdichip.com.

Thanks.

    No this feature currently does not exist. The Cypress USB
    driver and the LIBUSB drivers are used for basic Bulk,
    Interrupt, and ISO transfers.

    The USBP Lib provides a simple wrapper that encapsulates
    communication to the hardware.

    I will keep the feature open and explore it for upcoming
    releases. Do you intend to have multiple COM ports out of
    the hardware or simply use the virtural com to communicate
    to the FPGA?

    Thanks

    My intention is to have multiple COM ports out of the hardware.
