ACR IC102 VCP (COM5) Driver

The ACR IC102 VCP (COM5) driver lets Windows recognize the Acr USB device as a virtual serial port so compatible software can communicate with it. You may need it when setting up the device for the first time, restoring a missing COM port, or troubleshooting a connection that your application cannot detect.

Key Features

• Virtual COM port access: Provides a serial communication interface for applications that connect to the device through a COM port.
• USB device recognition: Helps Windows identify the connected hardware instead of listing it as an unknown device.
• Legacy Windows support: Supports Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP when you choose the appropriate driver package for your system.
• Application configuration: Makes the assigned port available in Device Manager, where you can check its number before selecting it in your software. Although the device name includes COM5, Windows may assign a different port number.

How to Install ACR IC102 VCP (COM5) Driver

1. Check your Windows edition and architecture. Confirm whether your system is 32-bit or 64-bit. For Windows 10/11 computers, note that Windows 10 is listed as supported; Windows 11 compatibility is not confirmed here.
2. Choose the matching package. Before starting your ACR IC102 VCP (COM5) driver download for Windows, verify the vendor, supported operating systems, and hardware identifiers where available. Choose the latest version compatible with your device and OS, rather than assuming the newest package supports every system.
3. Download and inspect the files. If a free download is offered, confirm that it contains the actual driver package. Extract compressed files and review any included installation instructions.
4. Install the driver. Run the supplied installer and follow its prompts. If no installer is included, open Device Manager, locate the device, select Update driver, and browse to the extracted driver folder.
5. Reconnect and verify. Restart Windows if prompted, then reconnect the device. Check under Ports (COM & LPT) in Device Manager and select the assigned COM port in your application.

Keep the driver updated when a compatible release addresses a connection problem or supports a system change. Before you update a working installation, retain a copy of the current driver so you can restore it if needed.
