OTC Ready Scan (COM9) Driver

The OTC Ready Scan (COM9) driver helps Windows communicate with your Spx USB device, allowing compatible software to access it through its assigned COM port. You may need this driver when setting up the device for the first time, reinstalling Windows, or troubleshooting a missing or unrecognized connection.

• COM-port communication: Provides the connection needed for compatible applications to communicate with the device through a Windows COM port.
• Legacy Windows support: Listed operating systems include Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP; select a package that matches your specific system.
• Connection troubleshooting: Installing the correct driver can help resolve issues caused by missing, damaged, or incompatible driver files.

How to Install OTC Ready Scan (COM9) Driver

1. Check your Windows version and system type. Confirm whether your installation is 32-bit or 64-bit before choosing a driver. If you are comparing Windows 10/11 compatibility, note that Windows 11 is not included in the supplied support list.
2. Choose the matching package. Before starting your OTC Ready Scan (COM9) driver download for Windows, review the package’s compatibility details and source. For any free download, verify that it is intended for this Spx device rather than a similarly named product.
3. Prepare the downloaded files. Extract the archive if necessary and read any included installation instructions. Follow those instructions on when to connect the USB device.
4. Install the driver. Run the supplied installer, if available. For a manual installation, open Device Manager, locate the device, choose Update driver, and browse to the extracted driver folder.
5. Confirm the connection. Reconnect the device or restart Windows if prompted, then check Device Manager for warning icons. Verify the assigned COM port and select that port in your compatible software; it may differ from COM9 on another computer.

Keep the driver updated by checking for the latest version that explicitly supports your device and Windows edition. An update may help address driver-related connection problems, but review its compatibility notes first and retain a working installer in case you need to restore your previous setup.
