The new user-friendly (or fool-proof) way to examine and change DUART28 adapter configuration is fc-duart28-conf utility described in the DUART28-EEPROM-config article. The present article describes the older method that existed before fc-duart28-conf, and which is used for initial factory programming. Determining your current DUART28 config ======================================= Connect the USB cable between your DUART28 board and your Linux host, and observe dmesg output. If your DUART28 board is in the C configuration, it will present as USB ID 0403:7152, and if it is in the S config, it will present as USB ID 0403:6010. You can also see these USB IDs with lsusb. The product ID string is also programmed as "DUART28C" or "DUART28S". Converting from DUART28S to DUART28C ==================================== If your DUART28 board is currently in the S config (or if you messed it up and have a blank or corrupt EEPROM), its USB ID will be 0403:6010, which is the default ID for FTDI's two-channel FT2232x family. Because it is the standard default, there are plenty of other gadgets using the same ID - thus you need to ensure that you have no other USB devices with the same ID connected to your system during the reprogramming operation. Run lsusb and ensure that you see only one USB device with ID 0403:6010. Ensure that this one device really is your DUART28 board: unplug that USB cable and make sure that the device disappears, plug it back in and make sure that it reappears. One you have confirmed that you won't inadvertently hit some other FT2232x device, execute the actual programming command, which is a shell pipeline: ftee-gen2232c duart28c $Serial | fteeprom-prog i:0x0403:0x6010 (See FTDI-EEPROM-tools article for other ways to specify the target device to fteeprom-prog.) Replace the $Serial metavariable with the 3-digit serial number of your DUART28 adapter board as it appears on the factory serial number sticker. After this operation completes successfully, unplug and replug the USB cable between the DUART28 board and your host - the adapter should now show up with USB ID 0403:7152. Converting from DUART28C to DUART28S ==================================== If your DUART28 board is currently in the C config, its USB ID will be 0403:7152, which is a private ID that belongs to us and should not be used by other parties. The reverse conversion command is as follows: ftee-gen2232c duart28s $Serial | fteeprom-prog i:0x0403:0x7152
