followed all the instructions ... usb serial port on XP - 32 shows up as comm 24 no matter which USB port the 485B is plugged in to. Hardware Utility refuses to find it. Controller LED is blinking, waiting for a connection. No clue what to try next. Auto Configure is running now but slows to a crawl after hitting comm 13.

Do you have that many? You can go to ADVANCED button and reassign it to a lower number. I have not had success with numbers above 14. This year I have 7 networks and had to change the comm # on two of them to get them to work.

I just recently ran into this problem. For some reason my laptop reinstalled the 4 network adapter to com ports 21, 22, 23 and 24. Last year they were on 3 thru 5 (only had 3 last year). I google how to remove com ports. Pretty easy instructions and deleted a bunch of them that we're not being used. Now I'm back to com ports 3, 4, 5 and 10. 7 thru 9 are being used.

I believe every time you connect a USB device, even if its a one time use...like flash drive, a port is assigned. I had a bunch of those.

i had this same issue, comm has to be below 17 to work with LOR controller.

Network configuration, sequence editor, and show player are all ok with com ports over 16. Just hardware utility being a bit behind.
