Cal-comp Electronics And Port Devices Driver



There are two reasons why you Arduino Clone board is not working

Important Note: If your scale has a USB connector then it should come with a device driver that you will need to install in Windows in order for the scale to show up as a standard COM port in Windows. Sometimes this device driver is supplied on a CD that comes with the scale and sometime you need to download the driver from the manufacturer's. If the problem persists after you rebooted your computer, then there is a chance that the issue is related to out-of-date drivers or a possible conflict between two connected USB devices.

  • A fake FTDI chip is used in your device
  • CH340G USB to serial chip is used your device instead of FTDI

As reported in hackady.com, you need to change the PID of the fake chip using FT232 config tool and never use the new driver on a modern Windows OS.

Since FTDI driver stopped working with the fake FTDI chip, the cheap clone stopped using FTDI chips, and switched to the CH340G USB to serial chip [this is good, when compared to using fake FDTI chips].
