location. If there was a calibration previously stored in the location you select, it
will be overwritten.
Note: You will probably want to make a written record of which cali brations

second Pointmaker, a PC). is section explains the options available to you for
each purpose.
e Serial Port dialog also allows you to assign a priority system to control users if
multiple controller/markers are connected.
Configuring Serial Device Types
Initialization of Device Types
Serial ports are “initialized” when the CPN-5600 is powered on. During this
process, the CPN-5600 attempts to determine what device type(controller/
marker) is connected to each port. is procedure can be lengthy since the
CPN-5600 accommodates a wide range of devices, and in its default detection
mode (autodetect), it will run through the entire list of possibilities for each port.
Using the settings available in the Serial Ports menu, it is possible for you to limit
the initialization process for a designated port so that the CPN-5600 looks for
