Assigning a COM Port for the Controller
To use any of the controllers, you need to assign a specific COM port in Aurora
Edit for the controller. Aurora Edit has pre-configured COM ports as follows:
To assign a COM port:
1. In Aurora Edit, choose Tools | Options | Controller .
2. For the Jog/Shuttle Controller, select the correct COM port from the 422
Controller Comm Port drop-down list; for the other controllers, select the
correct COM port from the USB Controller Comm Port drop-down list.
The COM port needs to match the number of the USB port where you
connected the controller.
3. Click OK .
You can now use the controller to control features on Aurora Edit.
