The Real Port is a PC software that creates a Virtual Com Port on
your PC.
The IP Address of the ICU will be assigned to this Virtual Com Port.
The Cellular Modem connected to your NMC Controller will select
one of the Com Port numbers not in use and this will be the Virtual
Com Port.
The Virtual Com will be selected on the NMC Net PC software for
communication with your remote controller.
Note: To communicate with your remote NMC Controller, the PC
needs to have Internet service.
