Gary,
In Windows, all COM-Port notation above COM9 must be written in UNC-Format.
See: 
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/115831/howto-specify-serial-ports-larger-than-com9
A good software takes care of it by itself,  no need for the user to 
know about it.
So, COM9 is internally "COM9" but COM10 is "\\.\COM10".
Don't know if the SW will accept that. If not you can forward this info 
to the developers.
