2.9Serial Ports (CN9: COM1; CN10: COM2)

The PCA-6359 Series offers two serial ports, CN9 as COM1 and CN10 as COM2. These ports can connect to serial devices (such as a mouse, printers, and so on) or to a communication network.

Table 2-2: Serial port connections (COM1, COM2)

Connector	Ports	Address	Interrupt
CN9	COM1	3F8*, 3E8	IRQ4
CN10	COM2	2F8*, 2E8	IRQ3

* default settings

The IRQ and address ranges for both ports are fixed. However, if you want to disable the port or change these parameters later, you can do this in the system BIOS setup.

Different devices implement the RS-232 standard in different ways. If you are having problems with a serial device, be sure to check the pin assignments for the connector.
