USB Driver

FTDI Virtual COM Port driver for the console port of REDZ devices

USB Driver (FTDI Virtual COM Port)

The console port of REDZ devices (for example the STG Series WMBus Gateways) uses a USB serial chip made by FTDI. If the device does not appear as a COM port on your computer, install the FTDI Virtual COM Port (VCP) driver for your operating system. The files below are FTDI's original driver packages, unchanged.

Windows

Windows 11, Windows 10 (x64 and x86), Windows Server 2022 / 2025 · version 2.12.36.20 · 2025-03-04

Download setup 2.4 MB zip

Recommended: unzip and run CDM2123620_Setup.exe. WHQL certified; installs the VCP and D2XX drivers.

Without the setup program: driver files (zip, 1.6 MB)

Windows on ARM

ARM64 · version 2.12.36.20A · 2025-03-04

Download driver files 1.1 MB zip

WHQL certified. There is no setup program for ARM64: install the driver from the unzipped files.

macOS

macOS 11 and later · version 1.6.0 · 2026-03-06

Download installer 122 KB zip

Delete earlier copies of FTDIUSBSerialVCPDextInstaller from the Applications folder first. Then move the installer to the Applications folder and run it from there.

Linux

No download needed

The FTDI VCP driver is part of the Linux kernel.

After installing: open the COM port of the device with a terminal program at 115200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit (STG Series WMBus Gateways).
