Name of the Arduino Nano clone in the device manager I'm working on an app using Matlab and it recieves data from an arduino. I've changed my board into an Arduino Nano (clone) recently. My program will automatically check for the device's name in the list of serial devices connected and it will connect to it directly once the user presses connect. The user doesn't have to input any Com port number or baud rate. This worked fine with my previous boards (UNO, Pro Micro, Leonardo). I just need to change the search string in my code and it'll automatically connect. My current board however is different, I'm using VMA102 (Arduino Nano clone). It uses FTDI drivers which I downloaded following this tutorial. I can upload the codes correctly to it but I just doesn't show a name with in the ports list in Arduino IDE as shown in the picture below.



Now when I looked it up in the device manager the name was 'USB Serial Port (COM5)' so I pasted 'USB Serial Port' as my search text in Matlab, it doesn't find it. I concluded that the correct name for it is not 'USB Serial Port' but rather the 'no name' as shown in Arduino IDE. Is there a way to find what is it called or how I can change it into a unique name so that my app can search for it?

Edit: here is the code, it works fine with all the other boards:
    devices = IDSerialComs();%gets all the avilabe com ports and thier names (name, com#)
    assignin('base','devices',devices);%save it to main workspace

i=1;index=0; tesst= zeros(length(devices),1);%saves the comparison results
while i&lt;=length(devices)
    tesst(i)= strcmp(devices{i,1},'USB Serial Port');%compare the received names with the board's name
    % 'SparkFun Pro Micro''Arduino Uno'
    if ( tesst(i)==1 )
        index=i;%save the index
    end
    i=i+1;
end

if(isempty(find(tesst,1)))
    msgbox({'Connection failed' ' plug the device, wait for 5 seconds then try again'} ,'Connection Failure','error');
else
    msgbox('Connection successful, proceed to the next tabs', 'Connection success');
end
%get the COM# associated with the index and add COM before it to from the comport number as a string
COM_Num = strcat('COM',num2str(devices{index,2}));
comport= serial(COM_Num, 'BaudRate', 115200);


and here is a screenshot of my device manager



Thanks
If you do a windows search for the device manager you will be able to see all the com devices currently connected to your computer. Unplug and replug your Arduino and it should be pretty easy to spot.

Mine is the USB-SERIAL CH340
