therefore a type of interface software will be required to facilitate communication between MultiLogger
and the Winsock port. This Application Note will provide information to utilize
COM/IP
, from Tactical
Software. This software may be downloaded from a distributors website, go to the following link:

purchasing this software.

registered your copy.
During installation of COM/IP you will be prompted to select a Port to use as the

avoid IRQ conflicts it is recommended to select COM5 (if it’s available), as shown
