Just plug in your USB interface and install the driver.
Then start Multiecuscan and go to "Settings".
Check (mark) "Show available ports only".
Then select a "Serial port" from the list (There will probably be only 1 option available).
Select "ELM 327 v1.3+" as Interface Type.
Set Port Speed to 38400.
Click "Test" button.
