1. Introduction |
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
|
|
|

|
|
|
- 2 ports multiport board |
|

|
CP-132, CP-132I, CP132S, CP-132IS, |
|
(CP-102, CP-102S) |
|
|
|
- 4 ports multiport board |
|

|
(C114HI, CT-114I), |
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
If a compatibility problem occurs, please contact Moxa at |
|
[email protected]. |
|
|
|
In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this |
|
version. They are: |
|
|
|
- msdiag |
|
Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa |
|
Smartio/Industio boards. |
|
- msmon |
|
Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals. |
|
- msterm A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial |
|
ports. |
|
|
|
All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under |
|
GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General |
|
Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail. |
|
|
|
In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find the latest driver at |
|
https://www.moxa.com/. |
|
|
|
This version of driver can be installed as a Loadable Module (Module driver) |
|
or built-in into kernel (Static driver). Before you install the driver, |
|
please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual. |
|
|
|
We assume the user should be familiar with following documents: |
|
|
|
- Serial-HOWTO |
|
- Kernel-HOWTO |
|
|
|
2. System Requirement |
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
|
|
|
- Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination |
|
|
|
3. Installation |
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
|
|
|
3.1 Hardware installation |
|
========================= |
|
|
|
PCI/UPCI board |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid IRQ conflict with other |
|
ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation procedure in User's |
|
Manual in advance. |
|
|
|
PCI IRQ Sharing |
|
--------------- |
|
|
|
Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to |
|
4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed |
|
together on one system and they can share the same IRQ. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.2 Device naming convention |
|
============================ |
|
|
|
The device node is named "ttyMxx". |
|
|
|
Device naming when more than 2 boards installed |
|
----------------------------------------------- |
|
|
|
Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is |
|
pre-defined as below. |
|
|
|
============ =============== |
|
Board Num. Device node |
|
1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7 |
|
2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15 |
|
3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23 |
|
4th board ttyM24 - ttyM31 |
|
============ =============== |
|
|
|
4. Utilities |
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
|
|
|
There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and |
|
msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should |
|
be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin. |
|
|
|
msdiag - Diagnostic |
|
=================== |
|
|
|
This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio |
|
board was found by the driver in the system. |
|
|
|
msmon - Port Monitoring |
|
======================= |
|
|
|
This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports' |
|
activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted |
|
(Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started. |
|
|
|
Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g. |
|
the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring |
|
is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <-> |
|
(plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER> |
|
on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication |
|
parameters, signal status, and input/output queue. |
|
|
|
msterm - Terminal Emulation |
|
=========================== |
|
|
|
This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports, |
|
especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple |
|
application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the |
|
port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a |
|
dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation. |
|
|
|
5. Setserial |
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
|
|
|
Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below. |
|
|
|
============== ============================================================= |
|
uart set UART type(16450 --> disable FIFO, 16550A --> enable FIFO) |
|
close_delay set the amount of time (in 1/100 of a second) that DTR |
|
should be kept low while being closed. |
|
closing_wait set the amount of time (in 1/100 of a second) that the |
|
serial port should wait for data to be drained while |
|
being closed, before the receiver is disabled. |
|
spd_hi Use 57.6kb when the application requests 38.4kb. |
|
spd_vhi Use 115.2kb when the application requests 38.4kb. |
|
spd_shi Use 230.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. |
|
spd_warp Use 460.8kb when the application requests 38.4kb. |
|
spd_normal Use 38.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. |
|
spd_cust Use the custom divisor to set the speed when the |
|
application requests 38.4kb. |
|
divisor This option sets the custom division. |
|
baud_base This option sets the base baud rate. |
|
============== ============================================================= |
|
|
|
6. Troubleshooting |
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |
|
|
|
The boot time error messages and solutions are stated as clearly as |
|
possible. If all the possible solutions fail, please contact our technical |
|
support team to get more help. |
|
|
|
|
|
Error msg: |
|
More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board |
|
and after are ignored. |
|
|
|
Solution: |
|
To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa |
|
driver supports up to 4 boards.
