### COM Ports
![COM Port Settings](screenshots/settings-com-ports-0-11-0.PNG)

Slice Master 6000 can control and automatically assign COM ports to programs that it launches which do not provide a network based rig control. These COM ports can also be manually assigned
to programs that Slice Master 6000 does not launch. Thus opening Slice Master's TX following listener capability to logging programs that require a COM port for rig control.

These COM ports are borrowed from SSDR CAT and need to be pre-allocated there. A good starting point would be one COM port for each slice supported by your radio. More if you plan to manually allocate one to a logging program.

When creating a COM port for Slice Master 6000 in SSDR CAT
the name of the port must start with 'SM6k-' and the port type must be set to Serial, as shown below. Slice Master will ignore the rest of the SSDR CAT settings but provides additional controls here.

![COM Port SSDR CAT](screenshots/settings-com-port-cat-0-11-0.PNG)

Once you have created your COM ports in SSDR you must shutdown SSDR CAT and restart Slice Master. Restarting SSDR CAT is only necessary if you are using non SM6K COM ports for other purposes.

Note that Slice Master must be started before SSDR CAT for the SM6K ports to be used.
