  • Page 27 UPort 1200/1400/1600 Series Driver Installation View All Settings You can preview all ports settings with this function. Advanced Settings Serial transmission applications use names such as COM3 and COM4 to identify COM ports. Unfortunately, most USB-to-serial products are unable to use fixed COM names on the host PC. This means the names of the COM ports change when the USB-to-serial device is plugged into a different USB port, either on the same or a different PC, forcing the user to reconfigure the COM names manually from within the application.
