    I am getting an error message telling me 'The interface connected to COM15 is not detected'
    However, my DOF reality is connected to COM 5 and works fine.

    Any ideas why Sim Tools is detecting or trying to connect to a second port?

    Many thanks in anticipation of support.

    Check that you don't have COM 15 selected for a different interface in Simtools - There are a few interfaces available in Simtools for hooking up a G-Seat etc.
