XTC/3 Editor Operating Manual
Figure 2-2 Add a Com Port
NOTE: Communication problems often occur when other programs (for example,
PDA link programs) that either actively use the communications port, or
wait for activity on the communications port, are running in the
background. These types of programs should be disabled or removed from
the computer used for XTC/3 Editor communications.
For most installations, the default settings applied by the program to the newly
added port will work without being changed. Adding a port, and pressing OK to any
dialogs that follow, will configure a port that is immediately ready for use.
Com Ports can be added or reconfigured from the System Properties page,
shown in
Figure 2-3 , which provides three tabs: Port Settings, Display and
Miscellaneous. The Port Settings tab is described in section 2.2.1 on page 2-4
and the Display and Miscellaneous tabs are described in section 2.4 on page
2-14 .
