45e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Sh SYNOPSIS
46e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Cd "device umodem"
47e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Cd "device ucom"
48e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Sh DESCRIPTION
49e1fb9409SSascha WildnerThe
50e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Nm
51e1fb9409SSascha Wildnerdriver provides support for USB modems in the Communication
52e1fb9409SSascha WildnerDevice Class using the Abstract Control Model.
53e1fb9409SSascha WildnerThese modems are basically standard serial line modems, but they are
54e1fb9409SSascha Wildneraccessed via USB instead.
55e1fb9409SSascha WildnerThey support a regular AT command set.
56e1fb9409SSascha WildnerThe commands can either be multiplexed with the data stream
57e1fb9409SSascha Wildneror handled through separate pipes.
58e1fb9409SSascha WildnerIn the latter case the AT
59e1fb9409SSascha Wildnercommands have to be given on a device separate from the data device.
60e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Pp
61e1fb9409SSascha WildnerThe device is accessed through the
62e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Xr ucom 4
63e1fb9409SSascha Wildnerdriver which makes it behave like a
64e1fb9409SSascha Wildner.Xr tty 4 .
