NAME
uhso -- support for several HSxPA devices from Option N.V. SYNOPSIS
The module can be loaded at boot time by placing the following line in loader.conf(5): uhso_load="YES" DESCRIPTION
The uhso driver provides support for several HSxPA devices from Option N.V. that are based on their packet interface. Each device has a set of serial ports and a raw IP packet interface. The serial ports of the device are accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes them behave like tty(4) devices. The packet interface is exposed as a network interface. Establishing a connection on the packet interface is achieved by using the proprietary AT commands ``AT_OWANCALL'' and ``AT_OWANDATA'' on any of the available serial ports. The network interface must be configured manually using the data obtain from these calls. Each device usually have at least two or more serial ports, their individual purpose can be identified through sysctl(8). Ports identified as ``Modem'' features a normal modem interface that can be used with PPP. Ports identified as ``Diagnostic'' uses a proprietary binary interface used for firmware upgrades, this port does not have a AT command interface and can not be used to control the device. Other ports features an AT command interface that can be used for normal device control. HARDWARE
The uhso driver should work with most devices from Option. The following devices have been verified to work o Option GlobeSurfer iCON 7.2 (new firmware) o Option iCON 225 o Option iCON 452 o Option iCON 505 The device features a mass storage device referred to as ``Zero-CD'' which contains drivers for Microsoft Windows; this is the default mode for the device. The uhso driver automatically switches the device from ``Zero-CD'' mode to modem mode. This behavior can be disabled by setting hw.usb.uhso.auto_switch to 0 using sysctl(8) EXAMPLES

NAME
ports, port_names - Device (tty and lp) names for serial and parallel ports SYNOPSIS
Default Serial Ports: /dev/tty00 /dev/tty01 (not present on a single-port system) Parallel Port: /dev/lp0 DESCRIPTION
AlphaStation and AlphaServer systems provide one or two 9-pin serial communication ports. These ports are usually labelled 1 (COMM1) and 2 (COMM2), but they may be identified by different icons. Using the appropriate serial cable and terminator, you can connect a serial printer, external modem, or character-cell terminal to a serial port. Most AlphaStation and AlphaServer systems also provide one parallel port, for use with a parallel printer. When you add a device to your system, the installation documentation may instruct you to map the device pathname to the port. These devices are located in the /dev directory. For serial-line ports, the two default device pathnames are: This pathname always maps to 1, COMM1, the lowest port number, an icon for a terminal console, or the only serial port (on a single-port system). This pathname always maps to 2, COMM2, the next numbered port, or (if one serial port is labeled with an icon for a terminal console) the remaining serial port. If your system hardware has been extended to include additional serial ports, the pathnames /dev/tty02, /dev/tty03, and so forth, may also be available to you. However, most systems have only /dev/tty00 and /dev/tty01 as the device pathnames for serial ports. The one parallel port on an AlphaStation or AlphaServer may be labeled with the word printer or a printer icon. On some systems, the paral- lel port may not be labeled. The device pathname for the parallel port is /dev/lp0. Currently, Tru64 UNIX does not fully support parallel printers, so fewer devices are connected to this port as compared to serial ports. If you are connecting a terminal console to your system, it must be connected to the serial port mapped to /dev/tty00. For other serial devices, it does not matter which of the serial ports you choose for the connection. For example, suppose you are setting up a system that has two serial ports, labeled 1 and 2. You intend to use a serial-line terminal rather than a workstation monitor as the system console and also want to connect a serial-line printer to the system. In this case, you must connect the terminal to the port labeled 1 (with the device pathname /dev/tty00). Therefore, you must connect the printer to the remaining port labeled 2 (with the device pathname /dev/tty01). If, for the same type of system, you intend to use a workstation monitor as the system console, it does not matter which serial port you use for a serial-line printer or modem. In other words, you can connect the printer to either port 1 (with pathname /dev/tty00) or port 2 (with pathname /dev/tty01). When prompted to enter a /dev/tty** pathname by the lprsetup script or the Print configuration tool in the CDE Application Manager, you would specify /dev/tty00 if you connected the printer to port 1 or /dev/tty01 if you connected the printer to port 2. See the System Administration manual for more information on setting up consoles (including remote consoles) and printers. See the modem(7) reference page for more information on setting up modems.
