| - | Step #1 is to plug in your FTDI adatper and install the driver (in case it isnt on there already). If you have an FTDI cable proper, there is already a USB A connector on the end. If you have an FTDI adapter, you'll need a standard mini-B cable, pretty much everything uses these so steal your camera's or cell phone's data cable | + | Step #1 is to plug in your FTDI adapter and install the driver (in case it isnt on there already).
