3.3 Locating virtual COM port number

To use the virtual COM port from a PC tool, the number assigned
to the virtual COM port is needed. This information can be found
from the Device Manager in Windows.
Control panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager.
In the Device Manager, expand the "Ports (COM & LPT)" item,
and locate the "USB Serial Port" item. The virtual COM port
number will appear in brackets next to the name, e.g. USB Serial
Port (COM4) as highlighted in fig. 2.
