    1. Locate the COM section.

    2. Modify the Port value as needed. The number needs to match the port number in Device Manager, under the Ports section. For information on how to do this, see "Identify and Confirm the Correct COM Port" in the "New Computer Setup" topic.

    3. Modify any other communication values as needed.

Except for communication settings, do not use any other settings on the Precitec controller as PC-DMIS may override them.

For the baud rate, only use 921600.
