Profile Wizard

Open the application and send the data. It will use the modem driver on
the virtual COM port to send the data to the Serial Port device through
Merlin’s Wand.

3.4 Restarting the Wizard

When working within Profile Wizard, a new session may be started at any
time.

Click the Restart Wizard button on any screen.

If Merlin’s Wand is currently emulating a connected device, the connection
will be broken, and Profile Wizard will return to the default Profile Wizard
screen.

If Merlin’s Wand is currently connected to a device, a dialog box will ask if the
connection should be terminated. Clicking the Yes button will cause the con-
nection to be broken, and Profile Wizard will return to the default Profile Wiz-
ard screen. Clicking the No button will cancel the Restart Wizard request.

3.5 Installing the Virtual COM Port Driver
