4. Finally, to figure out which COM port(s) the Wi-microDig is assigned to, go to Start > Control Panel > Hardware & Sound > Devices and Printers. Right-Click on the Wi-microDig and choose "Properties". Then, in the "Services" tab, you should see the COM port(s) listed. If there are two ports listed, ignore the one with direction "Incoming". In the example below, the applicable "Outgoing" port is COM5. The name "Outgoing" refers to the fact that the Windows computer is initiating the connection to the Wi-microDig. If you can't (re-)connect with a Wi-microDig, it may be necessary to re-create the Outgoing serial port. If you can't (re-)connect with a Wi-microDig, it may be necessary to re-create the Outgoing serial port.
