=== '''Installing Driver''' ===

====Install CP2102 Driver on Windows System====

Now, let’s install the driver of keyestudio MEGA PLUS control board. Its chip is CP2102 serial chip.<br>
Some system（WIN11） can’t install automatically driver but you could install it by hand.<br>

<big>Download CP2102 driver: https://fs.keyestudio.com/CP2102-WINDOWS</big><br>
<big>Or Download the driver of CP2102: https://www.silabs.com/developers/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers?tab=downloads</big><br>

Click the link to download https://getting-started-with-arduino.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_images/image-20230426100746100.png, and we unzip it to https://getting-started-with-arduino.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_images/image-20230426100852988.png.

Unzip again and we will get the folder https://getting-started-with-arduino.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_images/image-20230426101012182.png. Please remember the path of this folder for later use.

Right click Computer—– Properties—– Device Manager.
