Log out and relogin to activate the changes.
- The name of the serial ports are /dev/cua/a and /dev/cua/b.
Windows Note
- Read Step by Step Instruction for Windows
- The name of the first serial port is /dev/com1.

- If your serial Port has a ST16550A chipset you need to set an option in the kernel source:
# 0x20000 enable hardware RTS/CTS and larger FIFOs. Only works for
# ST16650A-compatible UARTs.
