DOS doesn't not support any serial port, beside that it has the COMx: devices, which work by the ports as defined in the BIOS data segment >how to use it? >what if we have a rs-485 or rs-422 instead rs-232? Certainly not a DOS issue, even BIOS know about RS-232 at best. RS-485 or RS-422 is completely application dependent, DOS knows nothing about those...
