Hi Ken,
Thanks. I do not use starwatch (maybe I should?). I need detail instructions on how to set up the emulation in VPSE (com 5 - com 15 etc.). Sorry but I am not that versed when it gets to this type of set-up.

Hi Bob,
The zipped _ports.vspe file
is my configuration and will do (I think) what you want for the port pairs
COM5 - COM15
COM6 - COM16
COM7 - COM17
COM8 - COM18
Setup VirtualVP for COM15-COM18 , and use the the COM5-COM8 for the ports used by the weather software and it should work.
The StartWatch setup of
Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\Eterlogic.com\Virtual Serial Ports Emulator\VSPEmulator.exe
Params: c:\winapps\_ports.vspe -hide_splash -minimize
Start: Immediately after StartWatch starts
Tick: Don't start another copy if running
contains all the info for StartWatch to load-and-run the VSPE program with the _ports.vspe file controlling the emulation.
It's important to have it be before VirtualVP in the startup sequence otherwise the connections might not be made.
Best regards,
Ken
