(6) If the PCI card was previously installed and not removed in the
Device Manager, you may find several B&BCOM ports with the
same number. The last instance of the same number is usually
the most recent installation. Only the active ports can be
renamed with the program to show the new name under the
Device Manager. Inactive port numbers will not show any
change after renaming. Ideally, unused entries should be
removed by using RegEdit, then having the system re-install the
drivers to make the entries. This will result in a single entry for
each port on the card, and only that entry will need to be
changed.
(7) After all B&B PCI or USB COM ports have been renumbered as
needed, click Close to exit.
If you need to install another serial device after using renaming with
this utility, you must:
(1) Name all COM Ports back to original settings using this
program.
(2) Install the new device according to manufacturer directions.
(3) Use this utility to rename the B&BCOM Ports again as needed.
