I have a code which is consequently performed in the following order.



result:



START APP,



After 5000 [ms],



Port is open



Why, I have to wait for the port to be opened until settimeout function is called?



const serial = require('serialport');

var mySerialPort = new serial("COM5", {
baudRate: 9600,
dataBits: 8,
parity: 'none',
stopBits: 1,
flowControl: false,
//autoOpen: false,
});


console.log("START APP");

//Events
mySerialPort.on('open', function() {
console.log("Port is open");
});

setTimeout(() => console.log("After 5000 [ms]"), 5000);
