Just installed this under Win-7, x64. Installed miniConda, updates, pyILPer, etc. All was obvious and smooth, no glitches.

But when I try to configure pyILPer to use my PIL-Box, I cannot choose COM5, which works fine with ILPer. pyILPer shows me COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4 options, but there is no COM5 in the drop-down list.

FYI, on my PC COM1 and COM2 are true serial ports, while COM3, COM4, and COM5 are virtual COM ports for various USB cables I use.

Does this mean pyILPer cannot detect COM5 to add to the drop-down box, or maybe that it's only looking for COM1-COM4 (which is common in many programs - I've discovered). If so, can I just edit some .ini file to specify COM5 ?
