At the FTDI cable you need crimp contacts to four wires:
Black - Ground
Yellow - RXD
Orange - TXD
Brown - CTS
Not used:
Red - 5V from the USB connector
Green - RTS
Cut to size and isolate with shrink tube.
Pin 8 - Digital Ground - Black
Pin 20 - RXD - Yellow
Pin 22 - TXD - Orange
Pin 24 - CTS - Brown
Finally use a cable strap and fix the cable to the connector.
Install the VCP driver from the FTDI page. http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
For Scout usage:
Make sure that the newly installed COM port has a number in the range from 1 to 16.
Go and get the number from the Windows Device Management (Start, Run…, devmgmt.msc)
Adjust Scout to the port and save settings.
Happy tracing!
