DJ, this is really cool. Now if I could only find my good webcam (I think now I left it in a hotel on a business trip a year ago. I have looked everywhere else it could be).

Any info on where we can purchase this Comm Expansion adapter?

I believe it is still in the prototyping and manufacturing process. I believe it is to be released in june.

Comm expansion is for the v4.x/2 only and will be shipping when the current v4.x/1 inventory is gone.

I am sorry, I am confused. If I bought an EZ-B-v4/2 in Decemeber of 2016 do I need to purchase this EZ-B v4/2 Comm Upgrade to do USB to a PC. Also, where do I get the UART to USB cable?

Thanks

@ZionPhil,

If you have a 4/2 you don't need to buy the comm upgrade. That converts a 4/0 into a 4/2.

Here is a tutorial that includes what you do need and how to use it:

I just got my USB adapters Saturday (my old one would not work on Windows 10) so i am going to try to do this later today).
