Click ‘Manage’ in the fly out menu to launch the ‘Computer Management’
console window.
3.
In the left pane under ‘System Tools’, click ‘Device Manager’.
4.
In right pane near the bottom, expand the ‘Ports (COM & LPT)’ section by
clicking the ‘+’ symbol.
5.
You should now see the COM assignment with the associated COM number
in parentheses.
Note:
Your system will assign the next available COM number, which will
vary by computer (COM4 as shown in this example).
