Even if the instrument is connected to a USB-port, it will appear as a "virtual" com-port in the
computer. The com-port will have a number, which may shift dependent on which USB-port the
instrument is connected to. If other hardware has been installed since last time the instrument was
connected, the com-port number could also change.
Checking the installation
After the installation, you can check which com-port number the instrument uses in the computer.
You will need to know the port number when upgrading the firmware in the instrument. Open the
Windows Device Manager (see below) and view "Ports (COM & LPT)". In the list of ports, it should
say "USB Serial Port (COM x)", where x is the port number.
To open the device manager in Windows Vista: Right-click "Computer" and select "Manage" then
"Device Manager".
To open the device manager in Windows XP: Right-click "My Computer" and select "Properties"
then "Hardware" and "Device Manager".
