28.Dt UHSO 4
29.Sh NAME
30.Nm uhso
31.Nd support for several HSxPA devices from Option N.V.
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33The module can be loaded at boot time by placing the following line in
34.Xr loader.conf 5 :
35.Bd -literal -offset indent
36uhso_load="YES"
37.Ed
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41driver provides support for several HSxPA devices from Option N.V. that are
42based on their packet interface.
43Each device has a set of serial ports and a raw IP packet interface.
44The serial ports of the device are accessed through the
45.Xr ucom 4
46driver which makes them behave like a
47.Xr tty 4 .
48The packet interface is exposed as a network interface.
49.Pp
50Establishing a connection on the packet interface is achieved by using the
51proprietary AT commands
52.Dq Li AT_OWANCALL
53and
54.Dq Li AT_OWANDATA
55on any of the available serial ports.
56.Pp
57The network interface must be configured manually using the data obtain from
58these calls.
59.Pp
60Each device usually have at least two or more serial ports, their individual purpose
61can be identified through
62.Xr sysctl 8 .
63.Sh HARDWARE
64The
65.Nm
66driver supports at least the following cards

76.Pp
77The device features a mass storage device referred to as
78.Dq Zero-CD
79which contains drivers for Microsoft Windows; this is the default
80mode for the device.
81The
82.Nm
83driver automatically switches the device from
84.Dq Zero-CD
85mode to modem mode.
86This behavior can be disabled by setting
87.Va hw.usb.uhso.auto_switch
88to 0 using
89.Xr sysctl 8
