Tansel,

Yeah, I did a little digging, and found that option, so I re-mapped it down
to COM2 and everyone is happy again.

I have successfully run it under COM12 however, so I don't think there is a
single-digit limitation.

I had a quick look at the SerialPlugin code, and it looks like the limit in
there is 16.

Thanks,
Jon
