EDIRECTING

The Adapter takes advantage of Windows inherent

support for a multitude of Com Ports, and allows you to

add one or more ports beyond the traditional Com 4.

Windows will always recognize Port B on the Adapter

using a Com designation with a higher number than

Com 4.

Unfortunately, many communications application

programs do not recognize Port designations beyond

Com 4. So, you might need to rename one or more of

the Ports in your PC to use different Com numbers.

For Windows 95/98/Me, this may be accomplished

using the Port Redirect utility found in the Utils

subdirectory of your Adapter diskette. This utility may be

run from the diskette or installed on your hard drive by

using the Setup.exe program in the Utils subdirectory.

To install the Redirect utility on your hard drive,

insert the diskette into your floppy drive, click Start,

Run, and type A:\Utils\Setup.
