Can anyone tell me why, when I click on the Tboltmon
icon associated with my Trimble Thunderbolt,
that a little Serial Port Selecton window pops up
and why does my T-bolt only run after selecting
COM-4? Why can't this be selected once and then
forgotten about? It seems like an un-necessary step.
I get the same pop up but have always assumed it was to allow for the
possibiliy that you might have Tbolts connected to more than one, or all, of those
sixteen possible ports, so giving you the option to choose which one to
monitor.
I guess it only runs after you select COM4 because that's the port where it
sees your Thunderbolt.
I've never considered it to be a significant inconvenience.
