Figure 2 

COM1 

COM1 (DB9) is configured as DTE (PC) i.e. RX=Pin2, TX=Pin3.  Thus, sensors such as GPS can be directly connected to the DB9 without the need for NULL 
modem cable.  However, when using COM1, a

 NULL modem cable is required to interface PROTEUS to a PC.    

This port can also be used to send remote commands defined in SCS (Software Communication Specification) or connect any RS232 sensor.

 

COM2 

COM2 is located internal.  Signals TX & RX are provided at J16 connector (Compatible with Garmin GPS 18x LVC) as well as 

Terminal Block 

J54.   

This port can also be used to send remote commands defined in SCS (Software Communication Specification) or connect any RS232 sensor.

 

COM3:

 

USB

 DEVICE PORT

 

When connected to a PC, it will enumerate as a COM port.  This port can also be used to send remote commands defined in SCS (Software 
Communication Specification).  This port is also used to upgrade the internal firmware.  

 

USB

 HOST PORTS

 

PROTEUS has 2 USB host ports.  Typical devices connected to these ports are USB keyboard and USB Flash drive for storing KML data.
