Is there any way to get the Name, windows displays in the device manager for a usb port via matlab? For example my COMPORT 7 is called 'HUBRADAR'. I want to detect this port automatically in matlab and connect to it. I know the serial object and instrhwinfo ('serial'). However these functions only return or use the internal name comportX.
