Hello, using PLX-DAQ, I see that you have to choose port # from 1 through 15, on my PC,· # USB port, more than 30, therefore I can not connect.

Someone knows how to fix it?

Grateful to those who advise me.

    While the usb cable is unplugged go into device manager, show hidden devices and delete the ones not in use. This should free up these ports to be assigned when you plug the usb cable in again.

    I did, I deleted all USB ports, reboot, and still add the same.
    True Win, XP and Vista.

    This question was recently asked in the Yahoo StampPlot Group.

    Here's the reply by Martin Hebel, the author of StampPlot and PLX-DAQ:

    Hi,
    We are using MSCOMM from Microsoft, and it was designed for only
    up to COM15.

    You can change COM port numbers by going to Device Manager,
    select device, Port Tab, advanced.

    Someday we'll put this in the help file or change the software...
