Re: Serial Port I/O

I tried the driver in the serialio website since the photo of the adapter looks like the one I have. I am hoping that it would work before I resort to buying the Keyspan thing.

I installed the driver. However, I can't seem to see the device attached to my serial port.  I used zterm but it seems that I can't see the serial device.

I don't know how to connect to the device. Any ideas? What port should I point to? The device is also under /dev right?

FWIW, I use "SerialPort" < http://www.serialio.com/products/serialport/
serialport.htm>.  It ain't free, but it works well.  I use their
native API, but I understand they support the javax.comm API as well.
