*1: The CD-ROM contains the driver software and User's Guide.

This board is a PCI bus interface board for performing RS-232C

serial communications with external devices.

The <COM-2(PCI)H> has two serial ports per board.

The <COM-4(PCI)H> has four serial ports per board.

The <COM-8(PCI)H> has eight serial ports per board.

You can use the standard COM driver software (COM Setup Disk)

supplied with the board to access the serial ports as standard

Windows or Linux COM ports.

The COM-2/4/8(PCI)H boards are backward compatible with the

CONTEC COM-2/4/8(PCI) boards.  The COM-x(PCI)H can

therefore replace the COM-x(PCI) in an existing system.

Features

-  Maximum communication speed = 921,600bps.

-  The baud rate can be set independently for each channel, by

software.

-  Each channel is equipped with separate 128-byte FIFO buffers for

transmit and receive.

-  A maximum of 16 boards can be installed as configured in the range

COM1 - COM256.

-  Driver software is supplied to allow the serial ports to be used as

standard Windows or Linux COM ports.

-  The boards use the same easy-to-use 9-pin D-SUB connectors as

are used on a PC.
