Also, note that the assigned special device names are fixed as shown in the above tables.

So, the first RocketPort will start at /dev/ttyA00, the second at /dev/ttyA16 and so on, regardless of whether the RocketPorts are 4, 8 or 16 port examples.

For example, if installing, say, two 8 port RocketPorts then the first card will use device names /dev/ttyA00 to /dev/ttyA07 and the second board will use /dev/ttyA16 to /dev/ttyA23.

Of course two 16 port controllers will have sixteen contiguous device names from /dev/ttyA00.
