USB-RS232 Convertor will usually use the lowest available COM port for operation. For
instance, if COM ports 1 to 3 are in use by other peripherals and applications, USB-RS232
Convertor will use COM 4.
USB-RS232 Convertor functions identically to a COM port from the reference point of both
the host application and the serial device, and it can support serial device control requests
defined in the Win32 Communications API.
When you connect the USB cable to the USB port, Windows will now detect USB device.
Since you have already installed the device drives, all you need to do is check which
COM port was created and tell your serial device's software to use the corresponding
port.
4. UPDATE THE MAPPED COM PORT
If USB-RS232 Convertor is assigned to a high COM Port, e.g. COM8, however the
application do not support it, you need to update the mapped port. In the Device
Manager, double Click the entry “CP2101 USB to UART Bridge Controller(COM8)”
under the category “Ports(COM & LPT)”.
Select the tab box “Port Settings”.
