   It's been a while since I used Computone boards, but as I recall,
the ones I've seen created devices /dev/ttyX01 to /dev/ttyX07, where
X is either an i,m, or p.  I may be wromg about this, because it has
been a while, but the "i" devices were the non-modem control, like 
/dev/tty1a, the "m" devices were modem control (/dev/tty1A), and
the "p" devices were for transparent printing.  If you would post
the line you are having troubles with, you would be able to get more
help on the matter.
