-400, 500, 401, 404, 410, 440, 703, 801, 810, 840. Different models have

.Pp
-A pair of two adapters can be united together by the special
-short inter-board cable. Two united adapters use the same
-IRQ and DMA channels and from the point of driver works
-as the single 16-channel multiplexer. One of the united
-boards is ``master'' and the other is ``slave''.
-.Pp
-The channels of the slave united board are numbered by the driver
-beginning with 8, for example, the united adapter of the model 100/500
-has channels 0, 8, 12, 13, 14, 15.
-.Pp
-The channels which have the RS-232 interface can be used
-both in synchronous and asynchronous modes (software selectable
-by cxconfig utility) and hence are called ``universal'' channels.
-.Sh "Asynchronous driver"
-The asynchronous channel device files have the names:
-.Pa /dev/ttyx#
-- for adapter cx0,
-.Pa /dev/ttyy#
-- for adapter cx1,
-.Pa /dev/ttyz#
-- for cx2.
-Here # is the channel number in hexadecimal form, 0-9-a-f.
-.Pp
-The driver fulfills the following standard ioctl requests (see
-.Xr ioctl 2 ) :
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width TIOCXXXXX -compact
-.It Dv TIOCSBRK
-Start sending BREAK.
-.It Dv TIOCCBRK
-Stop sending BREAK.
-.It Dv TIOCSDTR
-Set DTR signal (DTR := 1). The DTR signal is always set
-on the first
-.Xr open 2
-and could be changed by
-.Dv TIOCCDTR ,
-.Dv TIOCSDTR ,
-.Dv TIOCMSET ,
-.Dv TIOCMBIS ,
-.Dv TIOCMBIC
-ioctl calls.
-.It TIOCCDTR
-Clear DTR signal (DTR := 0).
-.It TIOCMSET
-Set the given values of DTR and RTS signals (<DTR:RTS> := data).
-The signals DTR and RTS are controlled by
-.Dv TIOCM_DTR
-and
-.Dv TIOCM_RTS
-bits of the data argument of the ioctl system call.
-.It TIOCMBIS
-Set DTR and RTS signals (<DTR:RTS> |= data).
-The signals DTR and RTS are controlled by
-.Dv TIOCM_DTR
-and
-.Dv TIOCM_RTS
-bits of the data argument of the ioctl system call.
-.It TIOCMBIC
-Clear DTR and RTS signals (<DTR:RTS> &= ~data).
-The signals DTR and RTS are controlled by
-.Dv TIOCM_DTR
-and
-.Dv TIOCM_RTS
-bits of the data argument of the ioctl system call.
-.It TIOCMGET

-.Sh "Synchronous driver"
-The synchronous channels and universal channels, turned to the synchronous
-mode by the
-.Xr cxconfig 8
-utility, are accessible as network
-interfaces named ``cx#'' where # is the channel number, 0..47.
-All standard network interface parameters could be set by
-.Xr ifconfig 8
-utility.
The
-.Xr cxconfig 8
-command is used to change some extended channel
-options, and also for setting the high-level software protocol
-(e.g. PpP or Cisco HDLC).
-.Pp
-The universal channels could be used both in asynchronous and synchronous modes.
-By default the asynchronous mode is set.
-The mode could be changed by
-.Xr cxconfig 8
-utility.
-The mode is blocked while the channel is busy (an asynchronous channel
-in open state or the network interface is up).
-.Sh "Synchronous Point-to-Point protocol"
-The Cronyx-Sigma driver uses the built-in implementation of the synchronous
-Point-to-Point protocol (sppp). It includes the support for such
-protocols as PpP/HDLC and Cisco/HDLC, and also the automatic
-connection loss test (via keepalive packets).
-The sppp protocol set is implemented as an independent module
-and could be used by other drivers of synchronous serial channels.
-The version of the driver for BSD/386 (BSDI) operating system
-also supports the usage of the general set of synchronous
-protocols, implemented inside the OS.
-The external protocol set could be selected by ``cxconfig ext'' command
-(see
-.Xr cxconfig 8 ) .
-.Sh "Channel Options Management"
-The
-.Xr cxconfig 8
-utility is used for setting the channels options.
-The channel options are generally set at the start of the operating
-system (for example, from the file
-.Pa /etc/rc ) .
-Note, that not all options have a sense for every particular
-case, and an attempt to set some of them can hang up the channel or
-the whole adapter.
-.Pp
-The actual channel options control functions are implemented via
-the ioctl-s on the special device file /dev/cronyx.
-There are the following ioctl-s available:
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width CXIOCXXXXXXX -compact
-.It CXIOCGETMODE
-Get the channel option values.
-.It CXIOCSETMODE
-Set the channel option values.
-.El
-.Pp
-The data argument of the ioctl call has an address of the options structure:
-.Bd -literal
-typedef struct {
- unsigned char board; /* adapter number, 0..2 */
- unsigned char channel; /* channel number, 0..15 */
- unsigned char type; /* channel type (read only) */
