NAME
nrsdrv - KISS to NET/ROM serial converter
SYNOPSIS
nrsdrv [-f] [-l] [-s speed] [-v] kissdev nrsdev
DESCRIPTION
Nrsdrv is a program designed to convert from the KISS protocol to the
NET/ROM serial protocol used by real NET/ROM’s and TheNet’s. The
protocols are fairly similar, although the NET/ROM serial protocol does
include a one byte checksum which KISS does not.
Typically nrsdrv will be attached to one end of a pseudo-tty of which
the other end has been attached to a KISS capable program. The NET/ROM
device will probably be a real serial port attached to a TNC or a
Hexipus. The full specification of the NET/ROM serial protocol can be
found in the original Software 2000 documentation that accompanied
NET/ROMs.
OPTIONS
-f Flow control enabled for use with a Hexipus, the default is
disabled. See the file hexipus.txt in the source
distribution for wiring details.
-l Log messages to the system log, the default is not to.
-s speed Sets the speed of both interfaces. If no value is specified
then no speed will be set.
-v Display the version.
BUGS
None known.
