Connection issues with Wheelson

Had initial connection issues with Wheelson on windows 10. Found that it was recognizing a serial device though windows was having difficulty installing drivers and “CircuitBlocks” also did not immediately connect. After looking at the anatomy guide provided by Circuitmess, I found that the communication IC (USB-to-serial converter) was a CH340C. This lead me to a Sparkfun site with a easy to install driver package that got it working.

Posting this here as it may be of help to others.
