Note:
Before installing any drivers, it is recommended that you visit the RTD web site to check
for a newer version.
The actual procedure for installing the software will depend on the operating system. Consult the
documentation provided with the software for installation instructions.
Once the drivers are installed, all eight ports should be available as standard serial ports (a.k.a.
COM ports) to the operating system. At that point, application software should be able to access
and control the serial ports.
Note:
When the CM17320HR is installed under Windows, it typically uses a contiguous set of
COM port numbers (e.g. COM3-COM10). If the CM17320HR is installed in a system with
more than two COM ports, there may be overlap between the COM port numbers. It may
be necessary to re-number the existing COM ports to avoid conflicts with the
CM17320HR. Consult the Windows driver documentation for more information.
