[comp.sys.mac.hardware] extra serial ports for II ?

merlyn@digibd (Brian Westley (Merlyn LeRoy)) (05/03/90)

I'm finishing up the drivers for our serial card, the DigiCHANNEL Nu/Xi.
(I didn't make up the name).  We have both a 4- and 8-port version.
We are beta-testing now, we plan to release software when A/UX 2.0
and System 7.0 come out.  Our Mac OS driver only works with the Comm.
Toolbox.  The ports will go up to 115200 baud; it can sustain all
8 channels at 38400 baud.

Anyone out there know of software that uses the Comm toolbox?
I need software to test with...

VersaTerm PRO 3.1 and later supports the comm toolbox for connections
and file transfer.

Your board sounds interesting - any idea when it will be released ?
Price ? Presumably you don't have to wait for System 7.0 since the
comm toolbox works with System 6 ?
