3.1 COM Port Setup and Selection.
Upon starting the RK-Wi.232DTS-FCC evaluation software, you will be
presented with a COM port selection dialog box. If you are using the
USB interface, make sure that the evaluation board is already
connected to the computer via the USB cable before you start the
software. This will ensure that the virtual COM port which is assigned
to the USB to UART bridge controller by Windows is visible in the
COM port selection list.
