To remove a device server from the COM mapping list, use the Remove Target command in the
function context menu.
ATTENTION
You can configure COM mapping even if your device server is off-line (not connected). When
using the Add Target command, simply select the “Input manually” option and enter the IP
address and model. This is a useful option for certain field installations where COM mapping
must be set up before the NPort is physically installed.
COM Mapping Settings
Each item on the COM mapping list refers to an individual device port on an NPort device server.
To map a COM port to a listed device port, right-click the target device port and select COM
Settings in the function context menu.
ATTENTION
You can map multiple COM ports in one step by holding down the Ctrl or Shift key when
selecting the target device ports.
