UVISOR(4)		     Kernel Interfaces Manual		       UVISOR(4)

NAME
     uvisor -- USB support for the PalmOS based PDAs

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

	   device usb
	   device ucom
	   device uvisor

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

	   uvisor_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The  uvisor  driver  provides support for USB based PalmOS PDAs, like Hand-
     spring Visor, Palm Mxxx series, and Sony Clie.

     The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver	which  makes  it  behave
     like  a  tty(4).  The device has several ports for different purposes, each
     of them gets its own ucom(4) device.  The attach message describes the pur-
     pose of each port.

     The usual Pilot tools can be used to access the attached device on the Hot-
     Sync port.

HISTORY
     The uvisor driver was adopted from NetBSD 1.5 in August 2002.  This  manual
     page  was	adopted  from NetBSD by Tom Rhodes <trhodes@FreeBSD.org> at that
     time.

BUGS
     The code to provide multiple ucom(4) instances has not yet been ported from
     NetBSD.  It is unclear whether this driver works in its current state.
