Windows NT supports up to 256 serial ports, from COM1 to COM256. Moxa developed pure 32-bit
Windows device drivers in order to fully utilize the advanced multi-process and multi-thread
features of Windows NT. The drivers conform to the Win32 COMM API standard.
You can download the drivers from the MOXA website. For information on developing your own
serial programming applications, please refer to Chapter 9.
Before installing the software, be sure to install the hardware first. For details on installing the
hardware, please refer to Chapter 2.

drivers is shown on the right. Windows
