Changing COM Port Properties & COM Port Number
This feature is particularly useful for programs such as HyperTerminal, which only
work with COM1 through COM4. Please ensure that you do not change to a COM port
number that is already in use.
To change the virtual COM port properties:
1.
Select the "USB Serial Port (COMX)".
2.
Click “Properties”.
3.
Select "Port Setting" and “Advanced”.
4.
Click the drop down arrow on COM Port Number and scroll to the required COM
port.
5.
Select "OK".
6.
Return to the Device Manager Screen. You will see that the USB Serial Port
installation has been changed to the new COM Port Number.
