The Sio.sys driver is a replacement for the com.sys driver. The Sio.sys driver can support up to 16 COM ports.

DEVICE=C:\Os2\Boot\Sio.sys parameters

• DEVICE=C:bslbootbslSio.Sys (Cn, An, In, Ig, Fc) :hp4. [(Cn, An, In, Ig, Fc)] :ehp4.

  • CN

    The number of the Com port or the string COM1 to COMn.
    If you use a * in front of the Com port, then the port will be used as a PCMCIA Com port.

  • AN

    A hexnumber to define the I/O address of the Com port.

  • IN

    The IRQ number (0 to 15) or the string IRQ0 to IRQ15. If you don't use this parameter, SIO will search for a IRQ.

  • IG

    This exists only for compatibility with COM.SYS and is ignored by Sio.sys.
