Modifying a Device Driver's Settings (WNT/2000/XP)
Use the following syntax to change settings of a device:
mtcfg [ [...]]
each of the settings is specified as
name=value
if value contains spaces, the whole name=value string should be enclosed in quotes (not just the
value), e.g., to specify the string “MT-85 on COM1” as the friendly name for COM5 with a baud
rate of 9600 bps, use the following syntax:
mtcfg COM5 ”FriendlyName=MT-85 on COM1” baud=9600
Following is a list of common settings that can be changed for a device. Most settings have a
default value and may be missing when the list of settings is requested for a device (e.g., by typing
“MTCFG COM5”).
