Converting the /dev/ttyUSB to com port to use it with Wine in Linux

I have some software which runs on Windows. I installed Wine and ran it in Linux. It works fine but the issue is it communicates with a serial port. Therefore the only option I can choose are com1, com2, …

I have tried ln -s /dev/ttyUSBn COM1 in the ~/.wine/dosdevices/. It does not appear to work.
