Holger,
The only way to use serial ports successfully to me, is to use the unit
serial on fpc, if I choose fpc to deal with serial ports. Another
problem results from misleading comments on the implemented procedures
and functions. As explained, seropen would return a zero, if a device
cannot be found. For real, seropen returns a zero, if this device is
found, and -1, if not.
Under the bottom line, it is embarrassing time consuming for a newbie
like me, to work successfully with serial ports on linux.
Here is a very simple serial example using FPC and SynaSer:

Hope that is of some help.
