Fixed-base COM

Moxa’s UPort 1200/1400/1600 Series Utility gives users a convenient tool for configuring and maintaining

products from the UPort series. In this section, we introduce the “Fixed-base COM Mode” function that enables

user to set COM names on the host PC. We use the UPort 1250 as an example.

Enable Fixed-base COM Mode

Moxa’s UPort 1200/1400/1600 series provides a unique fixed-base COM function that allows users to set a

specific initial COM port number. Regardless of which UPort is plugged into the host, the COM port numbers for

the UPort’s serial ports will be numbered sequentially starting with the initial COM port number. The default

setting is disabling Fixed-base COM Mode. To use “Fixed-base COM Mode,” be sure to check the “Enable

Fixed-base COM Mode” check box.
