Mapper device

This is a very rarely used device and not displayed by default.

Purpose: redirect non-configurable legacy application to another serial (virtual or real) port.

Mapper can be useful when some legacy 3rd party application settings cannot be modified (if COM port name is hardcoded).

Example: COM1 is mapped to COM5. If application tries to work with COM1 (send or receive data), it will be opening COM5.

To avoid conflicts, all other VSPE devices are loaded before the Mapper therefore it has no effect on them.
You can create up to 4 mappers.
