The Digitus DA-70156 adapter utilizes the FTDI / FT232RL chipset.

For older Windows versions (7, Vista, XP), Mac OS X, or Linux, manual driver installation may be required.

2. Ručna instalacija: If automatic installation fails or for other operating systems, insert the provided Product Support CD-ROM. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the FTDI drivers. Alternatively, the latest drivers can be downloaded from the official FTDI website.
3. After installation, verify the adapter is recognized in your device manager (Windows) or system information (Mac/Linux) as a USB Serial Port.
