application. On the included software diskette, Midiman supplies the<br />
Windows drivers that enable the use of the <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s with Windows<br />
MIDI applications.<br />
In order to communicate with the <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s, the Windows driver<br />
needs know what serial (COM) port you are connecting to the <strong>BiPort</strong><br />
2x4s. The <strong>BiPort</strong> driver is smart enough to detect which COM ports are<br />
installed in your system. This helps you to select the proper one from<br />
the “COM Port” list box. You also have the option of disabling the<br />
<strong>BiPort</strong> driver, which is handy if you would like to leave the driver<br />
installed while the <strong>BiPort</strong> hardware is not physically connected to your<br />
system.<br />
