Thanks Joe, combining your statement with what another person said defanitly qualifies the fact that the BB1004 does not have modem support, and that the IOAT66 (6-port) does. Jordan, can you please list this in the serial board section of the release/whatever notes: Boca BB1004 4-Port serial card (Modems NOT supported) Boca IOAT66 6-Port serial card (Modems supported) Boca BB1008 8-Port serial card (Modems NOT supported) Boca BB2016 16-Port serial card (Modems supported) -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation, Inc.
