- Hi...
-
- On the HC, you can have up to 3 serial ports, tty's a, b and c.
- The c is the 'fast serial' on the side. What we would like to do is
- to access all three, having both b and c open simultaneously, while
- a is only used to transfer data from one hc to another (used once a
- day, that's it)
-
- Is it possible to just open b and c and manipulate them? My
- understanding is that they just act as files, which you can open and
- read/write from at the same time...well...open at the same time :)
-
- Any info concerning this would be appreciated...
-
- Thanks...
-
- Marc
