FTDI are the initials of the USB manufacturer.
The USB port will be assigned a particular port number, in this case 3. Each time you connect your
USB serial lead to the same port on your computer the port number will be 3. If your computer has
multiple USB ports and you choose a different port next time the PM7000 and computer
communicate, Pronto will have to find the new communication Port.
Note the Baud rate (the speed at which traffic flows between the logger and the computer). For the
PM7000 it is 921600 and Pronto will choose this value for you when you select PM7000.
