Platform SpecificsIndex

Every effort has been made to support BrainStem interaction on multiple and disperate platforms.  Some interactions simply must be handled diffently on each platform supported.  This section desribes these differences for each supported platform.

Handling of Serial Ports

Serial ports have different names depending on the platform used.  The ports are often specified through a configuration file for a given application.  When no configuration for a serial port is specified, the default is used.  Below is a description of the available serial ports for each supported platform
