Device Names

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

AccelePort Xp devices are named according to the following conventions:

/dev/ttyhbp, /dev/prhbp

ttyh  

Base name

prh

Base name for DigiPRINT ports

b

Adapter number (1-8)

p

Port Identifier (a-p, A-P)

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

Upper case letters denote modem control ports. These ports require DCD to be asserted before they can transmit data.

Example:

Port 4 of Adapter 2 is /dev/ttyh2d. The same port with modem control is /dev/ttyh2D. The corresponding DigiPRINT devices are /dev/prh2d and /dev/prh2D.
