1.0 Introduction
============
The Asynchronous Communications Device Driver (COM DD) is a OS/2 physical
installable Device Driver (DD) that allows OS/2 application programs or system
programs to utilize the serial COM ports. The COM DD supports a maximum of 16
legacy and PCI COM ports called COM1 through COM16 with up to 128-byte deep
FIFO buffers.
The COM DD with PCI support accepts the same CONFIG.SYS parameters as
legacy COM DD (see OS/2 Command Reference) and three additional parameters:
/V Verbose mode
to display driver information about all accepted for service COM ports.
/W Wait verbose mode.
Displaying pauses with a "Press Enter to continue..." message.
/F Find COM ports on PCI combo (serial/parallel) cards automatically.
Not all of the installed PCI COM ports are sometimes accepted for service. For
example, if the total number of installed COM ports exceeds 16, then only 16
COM ports are accepted for service. Also, if a PCI COM port is not working
properly, or if a COM port on PCI combo card is not described in the PCIDEV.TBL
file and the parameter /F is not set, then such PCI COM port would not be
accepted for service as well.
This version of the COM DD supports COM ports on PCI serial and PCI combo cards
that are described in the PCIDEV.TBL file and/or identified by PCI device class
code: Base Class = 0x07 - simple communications controllers, Sub-Class = 0x00 -
serial controllers, and, if the parameter /F is set, Sub-Class = 0x80 - other
communications device (Encodings for class codes are provided in the PCI Local
Bus Specification, Revision 2.2, Appendix D).
2.0 Installation Instructions
=========================
This package is intended for use only with:
o OS/2 Warp 4, with FixPak 13 or later
o OS/2 Warp Server for e-business
o Convenience Package 1
o Convenience Package 2
The OS/2 COM DD with PCI support software consists of the following files:
- COM.SYS the COM DD with PCI support,
- COMPCI.DDP the COM DD Profile,
- MODE.COM the replacement for MODE command that supports
COM1 through COM16,
- PCIDEV.TBL the PCI Device configuration file (see 3.0),
- README.TXT this file that you are reading.
OS/2 automatically puts the following statement in CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=D:\OS2\BOOT\COM.SYS
where D: is the drive where OS/2 is installed.
The installation of the COM DD with PCI support is performed by replacing
legacy COM.SYS and MODE.COM files (in the directories D:\OS2\BOOT and
D:\OS2, respectively) with the new ones and by copying the PCIDEV.TBL file
in the directory D:\OS2\BOOT. System has to be rebooted for changes to take
effect.
To perform the above operations the OS/2 DD Installation command (DDINSTAL)
can be used:
- Copy the OS/2 COM DD with PCI support files (see above) to the Device
Support diskette or directory.
- Open an OS/2 window and enter DDINSTAL command to display the DD
Installation window.
- Set in the Source directory field the Device Support diskette or
directory.
- Select Install if the Source directory and Destination directory are
correct and you are ready to install the COM DD with PCI support.
- Verify the COM.SYS statement in the CONFIG.SYS file and add/change
its parameters if necessary. We recommend that you set the /F parameter
because not all PCI cards with COM ports are described the PCIDEV.TBL
file, and the driver will probably do a better job of automatically self
configuring than you can do using the PCIDEV.TBL file.
- Reboot the oprating system.
3.0 The PCIDEV.TBL file
===================
The PCIDEV.TBL file is a text file that describes COM ports on PCI cards,
including PCI combo cards, on Vendor ID / Device ID basis and must be in
the directory D:\OS2\BOOT, where D: is the drive where OS/2 is installed.
The documentation for the PCI Device configuration file is located in the
PCIDEV.TBL file comments:
;
; this file identifies serial, parallel and combo PCI devices
; and defines the usage of the particular pci registers
; this data is not available in the system without
; external help
;
; the syntax of this file is as follow
;
; a line starting with ';' or '#' is considered a comment
#
;
# each line represents a PCI adapter
; by vendor number and adapter number
; the vendor name is NOT stored on the card anywhere
;
; each record contains (leading 0's are never required)
; mixed case allowed, prefered
;
; vendor number (in hex)
; ','
; adapter number (in hex)
; ','
; 6 comma separated fields that contain
;
; the appropriate value for each register
; these are known to the vendor
;
; S = serial port
; P = parallel port
; Pn (n=1 to 6) Enhanced parallel port
; En (n=1 to 6) matching ECP ports for the Pn port
; U = USB port
; 0 = not used
; empty = ',,' not used
; Sx(y) = single address represents multiple (x) serial ports
; some offset (y) from the base address
; s8(4) means 8 ports, calculate I/O address by adding 4 to base
; for each port
; x = 1-255
; y = 1-4096
;
