![]() ![]() If you selected Output to named pipe, configure the named pipe. Select where the virtual serial port sends output. Click Finish to add the virtual serial port to the virtual machine. ![]() In the Add Hardware wizard, select Serial Port. Suggestion: forget about trying to assign com-ports to your VM. Procedure Select the virtual machine and select VM > Settings. When I wrote, that you can use up to 4 physical com-ports inside a VM, this applied to Workstation 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 and 7 only.Īs far as I know versions later than 12.01 can use only one or two Com-ports and those ports MUST be real Com-ports.Īdditional ports supplied by a USB´- serial ports card/ adapter worked in the mentioned old versions only.ĪFAIK what you have in mind will not work at all with any of the recent versions - I assume that the documentation in case it still mentions up to 4 possible com-ports has just been copied over from the working good old versions and nobody ever checked if that part still applies nowadays. Please note that I wrote those instructions for Workstation 7. To configure more than one com-port you cant use the GUI ! ![]()
