COM 1 (Serial) Port

Rear I/O Ports
The serial ports are asynchronous communication ports with 16C550A-compatible UARTs that
can be used with modems, serial printers, remote display terminals, and other serial devices.
COM 1 supports three serial modes, i.e. RS232, RS422, and RS485 as well as RS232 with/with-
out power.
Jumper Setting
Serial mode and RS232 with/without power of COM 1 are configured via jumper settings as
previously instructed in this chapter.
BIOS Setting
Configure the onboard COM ports in the Advanced menu (“Console Redirection” and "SIO NU-
VOTON6116D" submenus) of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for more information.
