Install AVRflash programmer software to enable a program to be transferred
from PC to the microcontroller chip. Installation instructions are contained
in ‘AVRflash programmer’ manual.
Install USB drivers on your PC to enable programmer's hardware to ope-
rate properly on BIGAVR2 board. For detailed installation instructions
