5.1 Driver Mode
Driver mode uses a virtual serial redirection driver installed on Windows systems.
The virtual serial redirection driver establishes a transparent connection between
host computers and serial devices. This allows users to communicate using serial
hardware and serial communication software, with the virtual serial port acting as a
native Windows COM port compatible with Windows serial communication
applications.
Under the “HOME” page of NCOM-113-M’s firmware, select “NETWORK SETTINGS”
to find the “Port 1 Mode Settings” window. Under “Mode”, select “Driver Mode”
and check the “Make these the default settings” box and click “Apply Changes” to set
your NCOM-113-M into Driver Mode.
