NPort Windows Driver Manager
Installing NPort Windows Driver Manager
NPort Windows Driver Manager is intended for use with NPort 6000 serial ports that are set to Real COM mode.
The software manages the installation of drivers that allow you to map unused COM ports on your PC to serial
ports on the NPort 6000. These drivers are designed for use with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/2003. When the
drivers are installed and configured, devices that are attached to serial ports on the NPort 6000 will be treated
as if they were attached to your PC’s own COM ports.
