ThingMagic M3e does not support a USB port directly, so the “USB” port on the Development Kit is
inoperable.
A COM port should now be assigned to the ThingMagic M3e. If you aren’t sure what COM port is assigned
you can find it using the Windows Device Manager:
a. Open the Device Manager (located in Control Panel | System).
b. Select the Hardware tab and click Device Manager.
c. Select View | Devices by Type | Ports (COM & LPT) The device appears as USB Serial Port
(COM#).
