Default:        2

Purpose:        Indicates the contention detection values for each connected
                serial port. These values are used by Windows to determine
                how to arbitrate requests for the use of a device by more
                than one application, at least one of which is a non-Windows
                application. If the value is -1, Windows will display a
                warning message that asks you which application should be
                given control of the port. If the value is zero, any
                application can use the device at any time. If the value is
                a positive integer less than 1,000, this value represents
                the number of seconds after an application stops using the
                device before another application can use the same device.
