Connecting the Vi2216LT to a Computer
Under “Port Selection”, click the down arrow in the drop down box. The GUI will
display all the available COM ports present on the PC. The example below shows
three ports available: COM1, COM3, and COM50.
If you are not sure which COM port to select, you can go to the “Device Manager”
window of your computer. Click the “Ports” icon and a list of ports will be displayed
along with a brief description. The following example shows COM50 as being a USB
serial port. The Midspan is connected to this port. Now you can go back and select
the appropriate USB port to use to connect to the Midspan.
