Serial port information including pinouts, etc
The PC COM 8 port serial adapter provides eight asynchronous serial
communications ports (RS422),
which link the computer and serial devices
such as modems, serial printers, plotters, etc.
The adapter is particularly
suited to facilitate the connection of terminals (VDU's) in multi-user operating
systems.
To accommodate a variety of OS, three switch banks permit maximum
flexibility of configuration.
