Introduction 20^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 21 22 The Smartio/Industio/UPCI family Linux driver supports following multiport 23 boards: 24 25 - 2 ports multiport board 26 CP-102U, CP-102UL, CP-102UF 27 CP-132U-I, CP-132UL, 28 CP-132, CP-132I, CP132S, CP-132IS, 29 (CP-102, CP-102S) 30 31 - 4 ports multiport board 32 CP-104EL, 33 CP-104UL, CP-104JU, 34 CP-134U, CP-134U-I, 35 C104H/PCI, C104HS/PCI, 36 CP-114, CP-114I, CP-114S, CP-114IS, CP-114UL, 37 (C114HI, CT-114I), 38 POS-104UL, 39 CB-114, 40 CB-134I 41 42 - 8 ports multiport board 43 CP-118EL, CP-168EL, 44 CP-118U, CP-168U, 45 C168H/PCI, 46 CB-108 47 48 If a compatibility problem occurs, please contact Moxa at 49 support@moxa.com.tw. 50 51 In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this 52 version. They are: 53 54 - msdiag 55 Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa 56 Smartio/Industio boards. 57 - msmon 58 Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals. 59 - msterm A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial 60 ports. 61 62 All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under 63 GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General 64 Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail. 65 66 In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find the latest driver at 67 https://www.moxa.com/. 68 69 This version of driver can be installed as a Loadable Module (Module driver) 70 or built-in into kernel (Static driver). Before you install the driver, 71 please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual. 72 73 We assume the user should be familiar with following documents: 74 75 - Serial-HOWTO 76 - Kernel-HOWTO 77 782. System Requirement 79^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 80 81 - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination 82 833. Installation 84^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 85 863.1 Hardware installation 87========================= 88 89PCI/UPCI board 90-------------- 91 92 You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid IRQ conflict with other 93 ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation procedure in User's 94 Manual in advance. 95 96PCI IRQ Sharing 97--------------- 98 99 Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to 100 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed 101 together on one system and they can share the same IRQ. 102 103 104 1053.2 Device naming convention 106============================ 107 108 The device node is named "ttyMxx". 109 110Device naming when more than 2 boards installed 111----------------------------------------------- 112 113 Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is 114 pre-defined as below. 115 116 ============ =============== 117 Board Num. Device node 118 1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7 119 2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15 120 3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23 121 4th board ttyM24 - ttyM31 122 ============ =============== 123 1244. Utilities 125^^^^^^^^^^^^ 126 127 There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and 128 msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should 129 be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin. 130 131msdiag - Diagnostic 132=================== 133 134 This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio 135 board was found by the driver in the system. 136 137msmon - Port Monitoring 138======================= 139 140 This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports' 141 activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted 142 (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started. 143 144 Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g. 145 the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring 146 is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <-> 147 (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER> 148 on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication 149 parameters, signal status, and input/output queue. 150 151msterm - Terminal Emulation 152=========================== 153 154 This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports, 155 especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple 156 application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the 157 port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a 158 dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation. 159 1605. Setserial 161^^^^^^^^^^^^ 162 163 Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below. 164 165 ============== ============================================================= 166 uart set UART type(16450 --> disable FIFO, 16550A --> enable FIFO) 167 close_delay set the amount of time (in 1/100 of a second) that DTR 168 should be kept low while being closed. 169 closing_wait set the amount of time (in 1/100 of a second) that the 170 serial port should wait for data to be drained while 171 being closed, before the receiver is disabled. 172 spd_hi Use 57.6kb when the application requests 38.4kb. 173 spd_vhi Use 115.2kb when the application requests 38.4kb. 174 spd_shi Use 230.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. 175 spd_warp Use 460.8kb when the application requests 38.4kb. 176 spd_normal Use 38.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. 177 spd_cust Use the custom divisor to set the speed when the 178 application requests 38.4kb. 179 divisor This option sets the custom division. 180 baud_base This option sets the base baud rate. 181 ============== ============================================================= 182 1836. Troubleshooting 184^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 185 186 The boot time error messages and solutions are stated as clearly as 187 possible. If all the possible solutions fail, please contact our technical 188 support team to get more help. 189 190 191 Error msg: 192 More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board 193 and after are ignored. 194 195 Solution: 196 To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa 197 driver supports up to 4 boards. 198
