Issue with COM port in rtumaster_example.py

[Dexter]

In the the above mentioned file if the setting is done to use port 4
as shown below the actual port used will be PORT5

master = modbus_rtu.RtuMaster(serial.Serial(port=4, baudrate=9600,
bytesize=8, parity='N', stopbits=1, xonxoff=0))

I think this is a simple bug and is introduced when passing the port
value to serialwin32.py.
Was a bit busi could not go through the source code yet

Hello,
In pyserial the number of the devices starts at 0. so COM1 is port 0.
But you can use the port name port='COM1'. See
http://pyserial.sourceforge.net/pyserial_api.html#serial.Serial
I hope it helps
Best Regards
