I'm using an API WIN to control the serial port, but I can't send or read information when the port is bigger then 9.


This is the code that I use to assign the corresponding port

IF com_port <= 9 THEN
portid = &quot;COM&quot;+String(com_port) work very well
ELSE
portid = &quot;\\.\&quot;+String(com_port) Not work.
END IF

Can you help me, how can I do to configurate ports bigger than 9, like 10, 11, 12, ...20... ect.
 
Try referencing the port as a hex number. So port 10 = A, port 11 = B, etc.
