On figure 1 above it can be seen that the driver was installed to use COM20.
The Satellite TV PC program only supports COM ports up to COM16. If the USB driver

number below COM17. Otherwise just skip this part.
Change the COM port number by Double-Clicking the Silicon Labs driver shown in
figure 1 above and the window in figure 2 will appear:
