2-35
Installing the Linux Driver
Linux Kernel 2.6.x and 3.x
The Linux driver provided with the UPort 1200/1400/1600 maps Linux host ttyMXUSBxx ports to UPort device
ports. Once the mapping has been set up, Linux users and applications can connect to a device port as if it were
a ttyMXUSBxx port. These drivers have been designed and tested for the majority of Linux distributions,
including Linux kernel version 2.6.x and 3.x. Please check Moxa’s website (http://www.moxa.com) for the
latest Linux kernel support.
