+====== Installing the USB Driver ======

+USB driver has to be installed.  Use a USB cable to connect the board to the
+PCB. When using windows, it will ask where to search for the software for the
+connected hardware (CAN board). Neglect the automatic search and select the
+location of the software (the USB driver) manually.
