port

If not specified then pendant tracks ports and connect to first opened (you probably already did it in cncjs app). If you have only one controller connected it's probably enough for you. In case of multiple controllers you can use this field to select port witch should be used. You can also specify that in command.

Every pin is described as an object. Field type defines type of pin.
