robopp Posted November 6, 2018 Posted November 6, 2018 I'm running into a weird issue where I cannot delete any ports in the list of Serial Ports in the Ethernet/Serial Device dialog. Also, clicking the configure button does nothing where normally it opens the configuration dialog.
AzeoTech Posted November 6, 2018 Posted November 6, 2018 Yes, there was a bug that would cause this to happen. In actual fact, the serial port is deleted, which is why you can't click on Configure, but it still shows up in the list. This issue has been fixed for the next release. You can contact us directly for a beta, or just run with it, understanding that even though it shows in the list, it isn't really there.
patrickokeeffe Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 fwiw, I ran into this problem with 5.87c Build 2050 - except the serial port was still present and it was not a rendering problem. I closed DAQFactory and changed the port number assignment of the "deleted" device (from COM6 to COM14). Then I restarted DAQFactory and it threw 'com port not found' errors for the "deleted" device com port (6). That confirmed DAQFactory was somehow stuck to the port and it was not simply a rendering problem.
AzeoTech Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 Try just setting the port to 0. That will eliminate the "port not found error". It is also a great way to disable a port without deleting it.
