I've just installed dosbox in my PC. I need to use an old program that controls a meassurement apparatus via com port.
I installed the program in a dosbox session, without much problem. I connected the aparatus to com1 in my computer, and there is no error (with winXP DOS emulator it was inpossible). But when "talking" with the apparatus, there are errors:
DOSBox version 0.72

On my old PC I used the following line in the .bat file:
mode com1:96,n,8,2 >nul
On DOSBOX.CONF file I used:
serial1=directserial realport:com1 startbps:9600 parity:n bytesize:8 stopbits:2 irq:4
Could anyone help me?
