Re: No COM error

You can't "download" a serial port. It's a hardware connection. If your computer doesn't have one built in, you'll have to physically install one. A desktop system might be able to accept a plug-in card, but one typically uses a USB-to-serial adapter cable.

Such an adapter was available through FIRST Choice this year.
