Windows COM Port Assignment

Windows assigns COM port names based on unique USB device identifiers, so if you reinstall Windows
or remove and reinstall the FTDI drivers, default COM port names on an individual Pioneer LX robot will
be arbitrary and must be reassigned as follows. COM port names can be reassigned by clicking
Adanced... in the Port Settings tab of the serial device properties, acessible through the Device Manager
or Devices and Printers. There are three FTDI USB-serial converters, connected to the computer's sixth,
seventh and eightth USB interfaces, each providing four serial ports.
