Notes on RS 232 and RS 485:
Both ports are compliant to RFC 2217. In order for a Windows program to recognize these ports,
an RFC2217 compliant driver must be installed on the computer. A Hardware Serial Port
shareware program is included on the CD supplied with the unit.
AFI Pilot software programs contain RS 232 and RS 485 port
communications as standard features when a Commander is installed
as a device.
