I am developping a program, and I wanna control the Serial PORT of desktop computer through the Emulator of standardSDK attached Windows CE .NET4.1. I am not success.

In MS Windows CE .NET 4.1 Help I found that Emulator Limitations are as following,
+-----------------------------------------------
Universal serial bus (USB) devices
PC Card devices
Storage devices, which include compact flash (CF) cards and hard disks
File system drivers, which include file allocation table (FAT), compact disc (CD), and digital video disc (DVD) drivers
IEEE 1394 devices
---------------------------------------------------+

When I used the Remote System Information tool of eVC4, after chosing [System Information] -> [Components] -> [Devices] -> [COM1] in the left column I have got that the COM1 I/O base address of the Emulator is the same as that of the desktop computer, 0x02F8 in the right column. But the Control setttings(DCB) is Unavailable.

Therefor I wonder whether I could control and confige the Serial PORT of desktop computer through the Emulator and WHAT should I do in detail!!

Thanks a lot,
Louis
