Before we can connect to the AMC13, we need to the identify the board on our machine. To do this, you will need to open your computer's Device Manager (or your computer's equivalent) and read the identifying code. Look under Ports -> USB Serial Ports and read the code next to the USB Serial Port that corresponds to your board (e.g. COM10).
