You should use CONTEC support software according to your purpose and development environment.
Standard COM Driver Software DRV-COM(WDM)
The purpose of this software is to allow the CONTEC serial communication boards to be used under Windows in the
same way as the standard COM ports on the PC. By installing additional boards, you can use COM ports in the range
COM1 - COM256.
The boards can be used for all types of serial communications such as for remote access service (RAS) and
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) applications.
Under Windows, the serial ports can be accessed using the standard Win32 API communication routines (CreateFile( ),
WriteFile( ), ReadFile( ), and SetCommState( ), etc.) The serial ports are also compatible with the Visual Basic
communication control (MSComm).
< Operating environment >
OS
Windows XP, 2000
CAUTION
The maximum number of COM ports able to be used depends on the configuration of your OS.
