When you plug the USB connector for the first time in your PC, you need to wait for
about one minute, the time to allow the drivers to be auto-installed on windows.
The USB is used to power the board. It also connects the on-board UART-USB bridge
IC to provide ACM interfaces (virtual COM) in order to access the board through UART.
You should see a window popping up with the following information
If for some reasons, the driver fails to auto-install on windows, you can always install

After driver installation, it is safer to unplug the Test Kit and reboot your PC.
