Step 5: Testing the Pair-connection Functions 

 

1. The Test2COM.exe program is located at:

 

 
CD:\Napdos\multiport\utility

 

http://ftp.icpdas.com/pub/cd/iocard/pci/napdos/multiport/utility/ 

 

2.

 

Execute the Test2COM.exe program. 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Check  
Data Bits: 8

 

 

1. Type 
COM1\COM2 

 

3. Check  
Parity: None

 

4. Check  
Stop bits: 1

 

5. Check  
Baud Rates: 9600

 

6. Uncheck 

7. Loop: 10 

8. Click “Start Test” button 

Note: 

The Baud Rate and data format depend on the serial port settings for the web
