Appendix B: How to change COM Port Number
Q.: I use a
USB-to-Serial adapter
in order to communicate with my LCIC-WIM
board through its RS232 port. Indeed, the supplied applications such as LCIC-WIM-
CALIBRATION work fine. However, when I tried to upgrade board's firmware, I
realized that the SDFlash utility supports only COM1
COM4, while the system
automatically placed my adapter at COM18. Is there a way to change my adapter's
COM Port Number?
A. Yes. The following description shows how to change adapter's COM Port Number
from 18 to 2:
(This demonstration was run on Windows 7 / 64-bit. The interface on another OS will
probably be somewhat different, but the principle will remain the same.)
1. Make sure you are not communicating with the adapter by any application (for
example, LCIC-WIM-CALIBRATION, RS232 terminal, etc.).
2. Run your Device Manager, for example by
Control Panel / Devices and Printers /
Device Manager
