Yes (COMn) 

u-connectXpress UART communications 

Enumerates as Port A in the Universal Serial 
Bus controllers list and COMn in Ports list. 
115,200 bps baud rate, no flow control default.  

No 

SPI communications 

Enumerates as Port B in the Universal Serial 
Bus controllers list. 
SPI not supported. 

Yes (COMn+2) 

u-connectXpress debug / log UART  

Enumerates as Port C in the Universal Serial 
Bus controllers list and COMn+2 in Ports list. 
115,200 bps baud rate, no flow control default. 
Log RX input to host PC only. 

No 

Not used 

Enumerates as Port D in the Universal Serial 
Bus controllers list. 

Table 6: USB-Serial port assignments 

The Virtual COM ports (VCP) are identified in Windows Device Manager 

under “Ports COM & LPT” 

as 

“USB Serial Port

 (COMn)

. The port with the lower number assignment corresponds to port A. Port C 

has an assignment that is two higher than port A (COMn+2). 

The SPI

3

 port is identified in Windows Device Manager 

under the “USB

 

Serial Bus controllers” tree as 

“USB Serial Converter 

B

. Entries exist for all four serial converter ports. 

The NORA-W36 UART and SPI

interfaces may be isolated from the USB-Serial converter by soldering 

across the normally open jumpers, as described i

Table 5

.
