If the device is connected via USB then the host will re-enumerate it and this
could take several seconds. Unlike other Virtual COM Port technologies,
Genovation’s MiniTermPro will restore the COM port connection for you. There
is no need to close and reopen the COM port in your software.
^E – 05h – Get Connected Port Type
Issuing this command will prompt the MiniTerm to respond with an ASCII byte
representing how the MiniTerm is connected to the PC/host.
