I am having trouble getting establishing UART serial communication between my PSoC 1 Eval Board, CY3210, with my PC. The specific device on the board is the CY8C29466-24PXI.
Basically, I need the PSoC to send data to my PC for a project, abut can't even get to the point of testing the UART connection. Right now, I am attempting to connect the 9-pin DSUB RS-232 port to a USB port on my PC via a standard RS-232 - USB cable. Upon connecting, my computer fails to install device driver software and stops the device due to it not working. I have installed the UART drivers from Cypress, and have attempted to associate them with the device, to no avail. Every time I manually tell my computer which driver to use, it tells me that the best driver is already installed and refuses to install the selected driver (cypressusbandbus.inf).
If anyone has any idea how I should accomplish this, I would be very grateful for your help. Perhaps my approach of using the 9-pin is completely wrong. Please provide any suggestions that may help. Thank yo
