2147672Scael.Cd "device dcm0 at scode? flags 0xe"
2247672Scael.Sh DESCRIPTION
2347672ScaelThe
2447672Scael.Tn 98642A
2547672Scaelis a four port
2647672Scael.Tn EIA

2847672Scael.Pf ( Tn CCITT

3047672Scaelcommunications
3147672Scaelmultiplexer. The
3247672Scael.Tn 98642A
3347672Scaelhas three direct-connect ports and one port with
3444674Sbosticfull modem control.
3547672Scael.Pp
3644674SbosticInput and output for each line may set to one of following baud rates;
3744674Sbostic50, 75, 110, 134.5, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 4800,
3847672Scael9600, 19200, 38400.
3947672Scael.Pp
4047672Scael.Ar Flags
4147672Scaelis usually specified as 0xe since 3 of the 4 ports (1-3) do not support
4244674Sbosticmodem control and should be treated as hard-wired with carrier always present.
4344674SbosticIf port 0 does not have the need for modem control then flags can be specified
4447672Scaelas
4547672Scael.Ql 0xf .
4647672Scael.Pp
4747672ScaelEach port on the
4847672Scael.Tn 98642A
4947672Scaelhas a 128 byte input silo and a 16 byte output silo.
5044674SbosticInterrupts happen on a per character basis unless the interrupt
5144674Sbosticrate for the card reaches 70 interrupts per second at which time the
5244674Sbosticdriver changes to a 16.7ms (60 interrupts per second) polling scheme until
5344674Sbosticthe interrupt rate drops.
