Moxa supports easy but powerful serial programming library and communication
troubleshooting utilities under Windows NT, Windows 95/98 and DOS. You will
save greatly the developing time, using MOXA Serial Programming Tools.
The following sections will details the installation, the library and the utilities for
various platforms.
Windows NT and Windows 95/98
PComm, the professional serial comm tool for PC, is a software package under
Windows NT and Windows 95/98, which consists of powerful serial
communication library for easy programming in most popular languages, useful
utilities such as diagnostic, monitor and terminal emulator, illustrative example
programs and comprehensive on-line documents.
The serial communication library is useful for developing a system for data
communication, remote access, data acquisition or industrial control in the
Windows NT and Windows 95/98 environment, which offers an easier solution
compared with the more complex Windows Win32 COMM API.
Installation

diagnostic and monitor utilities are for MOXA boards only. MOXA Windows NT or
Windows 95/98 device driver as well as MOXA board are required. The driver are
installed separately and detailed in Chapter “Software Installation”.
