Description
Configuring the system to use RS422 or RS485 serial modes on Windows requires using the
SerCx2.sys driver framework. Most existing serial utilities only support the Serial.sys driver
framework, requiring the use of Windows APIs to use the RS422/485 serial device.
RS232 serial mode uses the Serial.sys driver framework.
Workaround
A UART Sub-Device driver is available for download, and provides a mapping layer to the
Serial.sys driver framework. This driver does not support setting the DTR/DTS hardware
lines, which may result in compatibility issues with some software packages, including
PuTTy.
Resolution
There are no planned changes to the serial framework.
