66 | version. They are | ||
67 | - msdiag Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa | ||
68 | Smartio/Industio boards. | ||
69 | - msmon Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals. | ||
70 | - msterm A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial | ||
71 | ports. | ||
72 | - io-irq.exe Configuration program to setup ISA boards. Please note that | ||
73 | this program can only be executed under DOS. | ||
74 | |||
75 | All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under | ||
76 | GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General | ||
77 | Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail. | ||
78 | |||
79 | In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find latest driver at http://web.moxa.com. | ||
80 | |||
81 | This version of driver can be installed as Loadable Module (Module driver) | ||
82 | or built-in into kernel (Static driver). You may refer to following | ||
83 | installation procedure for suitable one. Before you install the driver, | ||
84 | please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual. | ||
85 | |||

99 | |||
100 | 3.1 Hardware installation | ||
101 | 3.2 Driver files | ||
102 | 3.3 Device naming convention | ||
103 | 3.4 Module driver configuration | ||
104 | 3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x, 2.6.x. | ||
105 | 3.6 Custom configuration | ||
106 | 3.7 Verify driver installation | ||
107 | |||
108 | |||
109 | 3.1 Hardware installation | ||
110 | |||
111 | There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio | ||
112 | family multiport board. | ||
113 | |||
114 | ISA board | ||
115 | --------- | ||
116 | You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector | ||
117 | as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware | ||
118 | installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further. | ||
119 | Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly. | ||
120 | |||
121 | PCI/UPCI board | ||
122 | -------------- | ||
123 | You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict | ||
124 | with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation | ||
125 | procedure in User's Manual in advance. | ||
126 | |||
127 | PCI IRQ Sharing | ||
128 | ----------- | ||
129 | Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to | ||
130 | 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed | ||
131 | together on one system and they can share the same IRQ. | ||
132 | |||
133 | |||
134 | 3.2 Driver files | ||
135 | |||
136 | The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The | ||
137 | first step, anyway, is to copy driver file "mxser.tgz" into specified | ||
138 | directory. e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below. | ||
139 | |||
140 | # cd / | ||
141 | # mkdir moxa | ||
142 | # cd /moxa | ||
143 | # tar xvf /dev/fd0 | ||
144 | |||
145 | or | ||
146 | |||
147 | # cd / | ||
148 | # mkdir moxa | ||
149 | # cd /moxa | ||
150 | # cp /mnt/cdrom/<driver directory>/mxser.tgz . | ||
151 | # tar xvfz mxser.tgz | ||
152 | |||
153 | |||
154 | 3.3 Device naming convention | ||
155 | |||
156 | You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser. | ||
157 | Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to | ||
158 | run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4. | ||
159 | If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5. | ||
160 | |||
161 | Dialin and callout port | ||
162 | ----------------------- | ||
163 | This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are | ||
164 | two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port | ||
165 | which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention | ||
166 | is "cumxx". | ||
167 | |||
168 | Device naming when more than 2 boards installed | ||
169 | ----------------------------------------------- | ||
170 | Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is | ||
171 | pre-defined as below. | ||
172 | |||
173 | Board Num. Dial-in Port Callout port | ||
174 | 1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7 cum0 - cum7 | ||
175 | 2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15 cum8 - cum15 | ||
176 | 3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23 cum16 - cum23 | ||
177 | 4th board ttyM24 - ttym31 cum24 - cum31 | ||
178 | |||
179 | |||
180 | !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||
181 | Under Kernel 2.6 the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM* | ||
182 | device instead. | ||
183 | !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||
184 | |||
185 | Board sequence | ||
186 | -------------- | ||
187 | This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set | ||
188 | in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board | ||
189 | will be installed in the system automatically driven. | ||
190 | Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards. | ||
191 | For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI | ||
192 | has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards. | ||
193 | |||
194 | 3.4 Module driver configuration | ||
195 | Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver | ||
196 | installation, please skip this paragraph. | ||
197 | |||
198 | |||
199 | ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver-------------------- | ||
200 | 3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number | ||
201 | Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices | ||
202 | which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell | ||
203 | script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure. | ||
204 | This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still | ||
205 | need to do this procedure when: | ||
206 | a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7" | ||
207 | section. | ||
208 | b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you | ||
209 | add/delete one MOXA board. | ||
210 | c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the | ||
211 | shell script "msmknod" | ||
212 | |||
213 | The procedure is: | ||
214 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | ||
215 | # ./msmknod | ||
216 | |||
217 | This shell script will require the major number for dial-in | ||
218 | device and callout device to create tty device. You also need | ||
219 | to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major | ||
220 | numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If | ||
221 | you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7" | ||
222 | for more detailed procedure. | ||
223 | Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device | ||
224 | naming. | ||
225 | |||
226 | 3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities | ||
227 | Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the | ||
228 | all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once. | ||
229 | But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source | ||
230 | code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see | ||
231 | "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again. | ||
232 | |||
233 | Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run | ||
234 | |||
235 | # make clean; make install | ||
236 | |||
237 | !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||
238 | For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core1: | ||
239 | # make clean; make installsp1 | ||
240 | |||
241 | For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4: | ||
242 | # make clean; make installsp2 | ||
243 | !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||
244 | |||
245 | The driver files "mxser.o" and utilities will be properly compiled | ||
246 | and copied to system directories respectively. | ||
247 | |||
248 | ------------- Load MOXA driver-------------------- | ||
249 | 3.4.3 Load the MOXA driver | ||
250 | |||
251 | # modprobe mxser <argument> | ||
252 | |||
253 | will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check | ||
254 | if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the | ||
255 | <argument> is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more | ||
256 | information. | ||
257 | |||
258 | |||
259 | ------------- Load MOXA driver on boot -------------------- | ||
260 | 3.4.4 For the above description, you may manually execute | ||
261 | "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run | ||
262 | "rmmod mxser" to remove it. | ||
263 | However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to | ||
264 | eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be | ||
265 | achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify | ||
266 | the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver". | ||
267 | |||
268 | But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command | ||
269 | to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the | ||
270 | rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser" | ||
271 | manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error | ||
272 | encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is | ||
273 | completed, follow the below step. | ||
274 | |||
275 | Run following command for setting rc files. | ||
276 | |||
277 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | ||
278 | # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d | ||
279 | # cd /etc/rc.d | ||
280 | |||
281 | Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist, | ||
282 | create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission. | ||
283 | Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line, | ||
284 | |||
285 | Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command. | ||
286 | |||
287 | 3.4.5. If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system, | ||
288 | you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given | ||
289 | board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are | ||
290 | as follows. | ||
291 | |||
292 | modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x??? | ||
293 | | | | | | ||
294 | | | | +- 4th ISA board | ||
295 | | | +------ 3rd ISA board | ||
296 | | +------------ 2nd ISA board | ||
297 | +------------------- 1st ISA board | ||
298 | |||
299 | 3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x | ||
300 | |||
301 | Note: To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel | ||
302 | source package. | ||
303 | |||
304 | 3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel. | ||
305 | # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char | ||
306 | # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old | ||
307 | |||
308 | For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link: | ||
309 | # cd /usr/src | ||
310 | # ln -s linux-2.4 linux | ||
311 | |||
312 | 3.5.2 Create link | ||
313 | # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char | ||
314 | # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c | ||
315 | |||
316 | 3.5.3 Add CAP address list for ISA boards. For PCI boards user, | ||
317 | please skip this step. | ||
318 | |||
319 | In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by | ||
320 | parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to | ||
321 | assign it within driver's source code. If you will not | ||
322 | install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion. | ||
323 | The instructions to modify driver source code are as | ||
324 | below. | ||
325 | a. # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | ||
326 | # vi mxser.c | ||
327 | b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below. | ||
328 | |||
329 | static int mxserBoardCAP[] | ||
330 | = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00}; | ||
331 | |||
332 | c. Change the address within this array using vi. For | ||
333 | example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address | ||
334 | 0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change | ||
335 | the source code as follows. | ||
336 | |||
337 | static int mxserBoardCAP[] | ||
338 | = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00}; | ||
339 | |||
340 | 3.5.4 Setup kernel configuration | ||
341 | |||
342 | Configure the kernel: | ||
343 | |||
344 | # cd /usr/src/linux | ||
345 | # make menuconfig | ||
346 | |||
347 | You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character | ||
348 | devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa | ||
349 | SmartIO support] driver with "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then | ||
350 | select [Exit] to exit this program. | ||
351 | |||
352 | 3.5.5 Rebuild kernel | ||
353 | The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your | ||
354 | reference only. | ||
355 | For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document. | ||
356 | |||
357 | a. cd /usr/src/linux | ||
358 | b. make clean /* take a few minutes */ | ||
359 | c. make dep /* take a few minutes */ | ||
360 | d. make bzImage /* take probably 10-20 minutes */ | ||
361 | e. make install /* copy boot image to correct position */ | ||
362 | f. Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the | ||
363 | correct position. | ||
364 | g. If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf | ||
365 | 'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path, | ||
366 | or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz). | ||
367 | After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo". | ||
368 | |||
369 | Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to | ||
370 | go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in | ||
371 | directory /usr/src/linux. | ||
372 | |||
373 | |||
374 | 3.5.6 Make tty device and special file | ||
375 | # cd /moxa/mxser/driver | ||
376 | # ./msmknod | ||
377 | |||
378 | 3.5.7 Make utility | ||
379 | # cd /moxa/mxser/utility | ||
380 | # make clean; make install | ||
381 | |||
382 | 3.5.8 Reboot | ||
383 | |||
384 | |||
385 | |||
386 | 3.6 Custom configuration | ||
387 | Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you | ||
388 | still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to | ||
389 | change these parameters are shown as below. | ||
390 | |||
391 | Change Device name | ||
392 | ------------------ | ||
393 | If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming | ||
394 | convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code | ||
395 | within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod" | ||
396 | by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" and "cum" and change them | ||
397 | to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device names | ||
398 | you need next time executed. | ||
399 | |||
400 | Change Major number | ||
401 | ------------------- | ||
402 | If major number 30 and 35 had been occupied, you may have to select | ||
403 | 2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change | ||
404 | major numbers. | ||
405 | |||
406 | 3.6.1 Find free major numbers | ||
407 | In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied | ||
408 | in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available. | ||
409 | e.g. 40, 45. | ||
410 | 3.6.2 Create special files | ||
411 | Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with | ||
412 | specified major numbers. | ||
413 | 3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number | ||
414 | Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line | ||
415 | contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below. | ||
416 | #define MXSERMAJOR 40 | ||
417 | #define MXSERCUMAJOR 45 | ||
418 | 3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver. | ||
419 | |||
420 | 3.7 Verify driver installation | ||
421 | You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status | ||
422 | log reported by this driver whenever it's activated. | ||
423 | |||
424 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
425 | 4. Utilities | ||
426 | There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and | ||
427 | msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should | ||
428 | be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin. | ||
429 | |||
430 | Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and | ||
431 | make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility. | ||
432 | |||
433 | msdiag - Diagnostic | ||
434 | -------------------- | ||
435 | This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio | ||
436 | board found by driver in the system. | ||
437 | |||
438 | msmon - Port Monitoring | ||
439 | ----------------------- | ||
440 | This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports' | ||
441 | activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted | ||
442 | (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started. | ||
443 | Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g. | ||
444 | the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring | ||
445 | is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <-> | ||
446 | (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER> | ||
447 | on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication | ||
448 | parameters, signal status, and input/output queue. | ||
449 | |||
450 | msterm - Terminal Emulation | ||
451 | --------------------------- | ||
452 | This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports, | ||
453 | especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple | ||
454 | application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the | ||
455 | port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a | ||
456 | dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation. | ||
457 | |||

460 | |||
461 | Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below. | ||
462 | |||
463 | uart set UART type(16450-->disable FIFO, 16550A-->enable FIFO) | ||
464 | close_delay set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that DTR | ||
465 | should be kept low while being closed. | ||
466 | closing_wait set the amount of time(in 1/100 of a second) that the | ||
467 | serial port should wait for data to be drained while | ||
468 | being closed, before the receiver is disable. | ||
469 | spd_hi Use 57.6kb when the application requests 38.4kb. | ||
470 | spd_vhi Use 115.2kb when the application requests 38.4kb. | ||
471 | spd_shi Use 230.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. | ||
472 | spd_warp Use 460.8kb when the application requests 38.4kb. | ||
473 | spd_normal Use 38.4kb when the application requests 38.4kb. | ||
474 | spd_cust Use the custom divisor to set the speed when the | ||
475 | application requests 38.4kb. | ||
476 | divisor This option set the custom divison. | ||
477 | baud_base This option set the base baud rate. | ||

486 | |||
487 | Error msg: More than 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio family boards found. Fifth board | ||
488 | and after are ignored. | ||
489 | Solution: | ||
490 | To avoid this problem, please unplug fifth and after board, because Moxa | ||
491 | driver supports up to 4 boards. | ||
492 | |||
493 | Error msg: Request_irq fail, IRQ(?) may be conflict with another device. | ||
494 | Solution: | ||
495 | Other PCI or ISA devices occupy the assigned IRQ. If you are not sure | ||
496 | which device causes the situation, please check /proc/interrupts to find | ||
497 | free IRQ and simply change another free IRQ for Moxa board. | ||
498 | |||
499 | Error msg: Board #: C1xx Series(CAP=xxx) interrupt number invalid. | ||
500 | Solution: | ||
501 | Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Please set | ||
502 | one IRQ (IRQ doesn't equal to zero) for one Moxa board. | ||
503 | |||
504 | Error msg: No interrupt vector be set for Moxa ISA board(CAP=xxx). | ||
505 | Solution: | ||
506 | Moxa ISA board needs an interrupt vector.Please refer to user's manual | ||
507 | "Hardware Installation" chapter to set interrupt vector. | ||
508 | |||
509 | Error msg: Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family driver! | ||
510 | Solution: | ||
511 | Load Moxa driver fail, the major number may conflict with other devices. | ||
512 | Please refer to previous section 3.7 to change a free major number for | ||
513 | Moxa driver. | ||
514 | |||
515 | Error msg: Couldn't install MOXA Smartio/Industio family callout driver! | ||
516 | Solution: | ||
517 | Load Moxa callout driver fail, the callout device major number may | ||
518 | conflict with other devices. Please refer to previous section 3.7 to | ||
519 | change a free callout device major number for Moxa driver. | ||
