You don't have to configure the serial port from Windows. The program will
handle that. I believe that the OMP's default serial speed is 9600, so just
tell UnixNPI to use that speed. Oh - and COM1 is /dev/ttyS0, and COM2 is
/dev/ttyS1. So, for example:

unixnpi -s 9600 -d /dev/ttyS0 <package names)
