Serial device |
In order to have npemwin read from a serial device, the appropriate line must appear in the file
servers.conf
A commented example is given in the default file. If the other lines are commented, then npemwin will read exclusively from the device. Otherwise, it will try the servers listed there when reading from the device fails beyond a certain threshold.
Although the default "servers.conf" can be edited directly, the recommended procedure is to create the file
site/npemwind.conf
(within the main configuration directory) with the line
set serverslist "/usr/local/etc/npemwin/site/servers.conf"
and then in that same "site" subdirectory create the file "servers.conf" with the line such as
/dev/cuad0 9600,n,8,1
optionally followed by the network servers if desired. In this way the "site" edits will not overrriden when the npemwin package is re-installed.
