Hi folks, Looking for some help identifying the USB—>Serial adapter names on Windows 8.1. Here’s the situation: I have a KX3 and a K3. Each has it’s own USB—>Serial adapter from Elecraft. These USB guys plug into my iMac. I run the K3 on the Mac side of the machine, and the KX3 under VMWare Fusion and Windows 8.1 on “the other side”. On the Mac side I use MacLogger DX (MLDX), FLDIGI, and WSJT-X. When I configure the radio connection, MLDX knows the “names” of each adapter. the one for the K3 is A8003Ssu and the KX3’s adapter is A501XNHZ. On the Mac side, it is easy to determine which adapter is associated with which radio.
However, on the Windows side, it is not an easy matter at all. Nowhere can I find any place where it shows the names of these two adapters. And the reason why it is a problem is thus: If the K3 is not “connected” to either MLDX, or WSJT-X, or FLDIGI on the Mac side and I bring up Windows, I often get both adapters available to me under Fusion. If I attach the wrong one to my apps on the Windows side, things are ugly and take a while to correct. Is there some way, either with Windows itself, or with VMWare Fusion to see these device names? ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
