Note:  [Text] = Item only exists under given circumstance.

• Serial Port Attributes :
   ◊ GPIa is connected to DCDa = Yes/No. Does the modem port provide
               handshaking on pin 7 of the connector in addition to pins 1 and 2?
   ◊ GPIb is connected to DCDb = Yes/No. Does the printer port provide
               handshaking on pin 7 of the connector in addition to pins 1 and 2?
   ◊ GPIa is connected to RTxCa = Yes/No. Does the modem port provide
               support for devices with separate data clocks, such as synchronous 
               modems?
   ◊ Serial Port Arbitration is Present = Yes/No.  Code which arbitrates
