UMCT(4)			    Kernel Interfaces Manual		       UMCT(4)

NAME
       umct -- Magic Control Technology	USB-RS232 converter driver

SYNOPSIS
       To  compile  this  driver into the kernel, place	the following lines in
       your kernel configuration file:

	     device usb
	     device ucom
	     device umct

       Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at	boot time,  place  the
       following line in loader.conf(5):

	     umct_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
       The  umct driver	provides support for USB to RS-232 converters based on
       the Magic Control Technology USB-232  design.   These  devices  support
       most  of	the standard RS-232 features including baud rates ranging from
       300 to 115200 bits per second.  However,	neither	hardware nor  software
       flow control seems to be	supported.

       Access  to  devices  under this driver is via the ucom(4) framework and
       device nodes.

HARDWARE
       The umct	driver supports	the following adapters:

          Belkin F5U109
          Belkin F5U409
          D-Link DU-H3SP USB BAY Hub
          Magic Control Technology USB-232
          Sitecom USB-232

FILES
       /dev/ttyU*	for callin ports
       /dev/ttyU*.init
       /dev/ttyU*.lock	corresponding callin initial-state and lock-state  de-
			vices

       /dev/cuaU*	for callout ports
       /dev/cuaU*.init
       /dev/cuaU*.lock	corresponding callout initial-state and	lock-state de-
			vices

HISTORY
       The  umct  driver  appeared in FreeBSD 5.2.  It is loosely based	on the
       ubsa(4) driver by Alexander Kabaev <kan@FreeBSD.org> with documentation
       from Wolfgang Grandeggar	<wolfgang@cec.ch>.

AUTHORS
       The umct	driver was written by Scott Long <scottl@FreeBSD.org>.

FreeBSD	14.3			April 26, 2017			       UMCT(4)
