Click on the <Port> button to see the
available ports. The Serial port should
be identified as something like
USBmodem or USBSerial etc. Pick
this option and then click on the small
box to the right of this line. This box
will provide the full detail of the Port
Name.

each computer will be different.
The full name is
/dev/cu.usbmodem411.
Make a note of this full name as you
will need it in the MAG-ic probe
Software.
