ISPSoft User Manual

Chapter 2 Starting and Setting
After COMMGR is started successfully, the icon representing COMMGR will be displayed on the
system tray. Users can open the COMMGR window by double-clicking the icon. They can also open
the COMMGR window by right-clicking the icon, and clicking Open on the context menu.
The COMMGR window is shown below. The drivers created are listed in the window. ISPSoft
connects to COMMGR by means of specifying a driver. Users can manage the drivers through the
buttons at the right side of the window. Please refer to the section below for more information about
managing drivers.
Users can close the COMMGR window by clicking or in the upper right corner of the
window. However, the icon representing COMMGR is still displayed on the system tray. If users
want to close COMMGR completely, they can right-click the icon displayed on the system tray, and
click Close on the context menu.
2.4.2 Managing Drivers
The drivers listed in the COMMGR window connect programs and communication ports. If the status
of a driver displayed in the COMMGR window is START, COMMGR connects to the communication
port specified by the driver. Whenever the computer is restarted, COMMGR starts the driver
automatically. However, if COMMGR can not connect to the communication port specified by a
driver, COMMGR automatically stops the driver, the status of the driver displayed in the window is
ERROR, and the icon representing COMMGR on the system tray is marked with a red cross.
