12. Verify 1 new COM Port. (shown here as COM5)

If you have 1 new COM port, the installation is complete. Select the port, select Settings, Advanced. You should obtain the message, "There are no user configurable Advanced I/O parameters for this COM port."

Check the port with your software or with a Loopback test.

NOTE: In the above example, a serial mouse is connected to the port which would usually be COM1. NT does not show it. COM2 is the second built-in serial port.
