[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] RING line and COM ports

dan@dyndata.uucp (Dan Everhart) (05/27/91)

The UARTs used in PCs have a bit in the modem status register for
reading the RING line.  Is that line actually brought out to the DB-25
connector on all PC serial boards?  If so, to which pin?  How about
the DB-9 connector?

Please email answers.  I'll post the answer if requested.
