Connecting Serial Devices
The COM ports provided by the SERIAL PORTS 1-8 can support any asynchronous
serial modem for use by any application that uses TAPI.
There is a remote possibility that connecting a peripheral using the wrong
configuration (RS-232 device connected to a RS-422 configured port) could
damage the peripheral. Configure each serial port specifically for the peripheral
that will be connected prior to connecting the peripheral to the ATS-NTE. See
on Page 18 for information about configuring port
characteristics.
Note: If your serial devices require a driver that does not support the Windows NT
Embedded system, contact Comtrol before driver installation.
Connect your serial devices to the configured ports using the appropriate cables. If
you need to build cables, see
RocketPort Serial Port Connectors
Installing Modems on the RocketPort Serial Ports
A standard 28800 bps modem driver is built into the ATS-NTE image. To add
additional modems that use the standard driver, see Using the ATS-NTE
Standard Modem Driver (below).
If you want to install a specific driver for your modems on the RocketPort serial
ports (SERIAL PORTS 1-8), see
Using the Modem Manufacturer’s Driver

COM3 is assigned to the optional
PCMCIA Ethernet/Modem card.
