Device Names

Use the information on this page to determine the names of the devices created for each Digi Adapter supported by the SCO UnixWare driver.

AccelePort Xp devices are named according to the following conventions:

/dev/term/hbp, /dev/prhbp

h

Base name

prh

Base name for DigiPRINT devices

b

Adapter number (0-7)

p

Port Identifier (a-h, A-H)

Lower case letters denote non modem control devices. These devices do not require DCD to be asserted before they can transmit data.

Upper case letters denote modem control devices. These devices require DCD to be asserted before they can transmit data, and software flow control is enabled by default.

Example:

Port 4 of Adapter 2 is /dev/term/h1d. The same port with modem control is /dev/term/h1D. The associated DigiPRINT devices are /dev/prh1d and /dev/prh1D.
