Additional Details

To connect Meet Manager to your Gen7 timer, open Device Manager and scroll down to Ports. The COM port used for the MM–Gen7 connection will typically be labeled as a USB Serial Port.

To confirm the correct port:

  1. While viewing Device Manager, unplug the USB cable connecting the MM laptop to the Gen7 timer and note which port disappears.

  2. Reconnect the USB cable and verify that the laptop reassigns the same port to the Gen7 timer.

Once you have identified the correct port, return to the Open/Close Port screen in Meet Manager, enter the corresponding port number, and click OK.

If communication still fails, close the port by entering 0 for the port number and clicking OK, then attempt to open the port again.
