NOTE
Effective with release 5.0 of the E6474A software, the System Setup view
displays device identification information whenever the E6473A or E6473B
hubs are connected. You can now see at a glance which COM ports are
assigned to each type of device, and you can even identify those for
E6473A versus E6473B. You can also differentiate the functionality of each
COM port.
