‘Ports (COM & LPT)’ heading. The Device Manager only shows ports that

Using Acclima SnapView Software
The Acclima SnapView software provides four important functions:
1. DataSnap configuration – configuring a DataSnap for operation
2. Automatic data synchronization – data retrieval from all connected
DataSnaps
3. Manual sensor reading – user-initiated sensor readings
4. Data analysis – synchronized sensor data analysis
The DataSnap can communicate with and read any type of SDI-12 sensor.
It is not limited to Acclima sensors. The DataSnap must be configured to
know which sensors to read. This is easily done in the ‘Configuration’
section of the SnapView software. To add sensors, go to the ‘Sensors’
