You can also choose to have WinScript tell you exactly what it is doing when it

Communication Options
Before changing anything in this section, you must determine which method of
communication you will use on your show controller. Select the appropriate
communication method in the
Method
section.
If you intend to use the serial port to download a full show or test specific
events, your PC must be connected to your Show Controller’s Programmer Port
by a straight-thru DB9F-DB9F serial cable. WinScript will automatically detect
any serial ports that are available and add them to the drop box in the
Serial
Settings
section.
If you are using a Show Controller with Ethernet Capability or you are using an
Ethernet add-on product (Webster), you can configure it in the
Ethernet
Settings
section.
In this screen you can also choose to display verbose download messages. This
means that when your PC is downloading a compiled show to your Show
Controller that it will tell you exactly what messages it is sending to the Show
Controller and describe the Show Controller’s responses.
