Operating Instructions
1) Before you plug in the USB to Serial adapter for the first time, make sure you install the driver.
To determine which driver to install, take a look at the USB to Serial adapter. There will be writing on it.
If your USB to Adapter says "HL-340" on it as shown below:

If your USB to Adapter says "HL-2303" on it as shown below:
PL-2303VistaDriverInstaller.exe
Install the following driver if you have Windows XP 64-bit , Vista 64-bit or Windows 7: PL2303_Prolific_GPS_AllInOne_1013.exe
If you are not sure if you have 32-bit Windows or 64-bit Windows, you MUST check with this link:

2) Connect the Serial Cable or USB to Serial adapter to the WOT Box Serial Port and to your computer.
3) Turn your key to the "on" position.
Note: If the WOT Box does not remain powered with the key in the "on" position without the engine running, then you will need to start the car to be able to use the User Interface Software, or use our AC adapter, available from our website at: http://www.n2mb.com/wotbox Known cars that require this are the Dodge Neon SRT-4 and the Audi A4.
4) The WOT Box GUI is currently a single .exe file that requires no other files. Open this file.
If the program fails to run or displays an error message and crashes, you may need to install the .NET framework from Microsoft on your computer. This is available from Microsoft for the following operating systems:
- Windows 2000
- Windows XP
- Windows Vista - Not needed, Vista includes .NET Framework.
6) If this is the first time you have used this version of the software, then the first thing you will need to do is load the new firmware onto your WOT Box. To do this, select Select the COM port that the WOT Box is connected to. In Windows, this can be found in CONTROL PANEL > SYSTEM > HARDWARE > DEVICE MANAGER > PORTS. Look for the COM port labeled with USB to Serial.
8) Click Load Firmware. If this doesn't work, check to make sure that you have the right COM Port and that if you're using a USB to Serial adapter that your computer is recognizing it. If not, you may have a bad USB to Serial adapter or the drivers may not be installed properly. The drivers are available above.
9) Click the Down Arrow next to the RPM Source Box. If your instructions say to connect the YELLOW WOT Box Wire to a crank position sensor or cam position sensor and your vehicle is listed, select your vehicle. If not, if your set of instructions say to connect the YELLOW WOT Box Wire to an ignition signal, select OTHER-Ignition Signal, and if your set of instructions say to connect to a fuel injector, select OTHER-Fuel Signal.
14) If the Clutch box in the lower left reads DN, click the checkbox for Inverted Clutch and click WRITE
15) If you made any changes, press read and make sure that both TPS and Clutch read UP. If these still don't read correctly, check your wiring.
16) Press the clutch down and click READ. Make sure that the clutch box reads DN.
17) Press the accelerator down and click read, making sure to lift off of the accelerator quickly enough to keep from hitting the rev-limiter. Alternately, if your car keeps the WOT Box powered without the engine running, this test is much easier to run with the engine off, but key on. You can keep the accelerator floored and then click read.
18) Make sure that the TPS box reads DN. If not, check your wiring.
19) Unplug from the WOT Box serial port and test the WOT Box as outlined in your set of directions.
Recovery Procedure
If
your WOT Box stops responding and isn't fixed by powering it off and
then on, then you may have lost your settings and must perform the Recovery
Procedure.
1)Connect the WOT Box to the computer with the serial cable and make sure that the WOT Box DOES NOT have power.
2)Open
the User Interface, select your COM Port, click either the single or
dual feature box (depending on your WOT Box), and click LOAD FIRMWARE.
3)When you see
the message:
in the lower left Interface Box, power on the WOT Box by turning your key to the "on" position.
Note:If your vehicle does not provide
power to the WOT Box with the key in the "on" position without the
engine running, you will need start your car in this step. Start from
the "off" position and smoothly but quickly go to the "start" and then
"on" position after the engine has started. This will allow continuous power to be provided to the
WOT Box to allow the firmware upgrade to complete. Known cars that require this are the Dodge Neon SRT-4 and the Audi A4.
