Comm Port Status Error

I get a small red square at the bottom of my screen that I did not notice before I got the full software package and it says "Comm Port Status Error". Any one explain this for me please.

Do you have your USB adapter plugged in? For me, that error is the normal state of affairs on my sequencing PC, as I only plug in the USB dongle if I am using the hardware utility to test new hardware, or upgrade firmware.

ETA: You wouldn't get that error on the demo version, as it is not capable of controlling hardware.

I just noticed that too upon updateing. I am pretty sure it is indicating that you dont currently have any controller interface hooked up? When I opened the editor but did not have any device attached to the PC i get the red box. Then I plugged in my USB485B addaptor to a USB port, it stayed red but if i closed the editor and re-opened it, it was blue "Com port status:good.

I was thinking that this was probably the problem. I have not received my sub adapter or the controllers yet but was just getting answers before they get here.
Thanks for the replies.
