CAUTION: After enabling the serial port for use with LO100, legacy serial devices might not function correctly if attached to the serial port.

You must configure the LO100 serial port hardware parameters to work with your respective serial port communications software. LO100 serial port configuration is controlled through the BIOS Setup Utility.
