will automatically fall into an acceptable range with respect
to the other elements of your computer's communications
ports, but if you are having problems or conflicts between
the ports, here is what you can do to change the COM port.
Before making any changes. it is advisable to keep a record

able to retrace your steps should you decide to go back and
try something again but with different settings elsewhere.
