NAME

6       du, dp - DU-11 201 data-phone interface
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  dp0  file  is a 201 data-phone interface.  Read and write calls to
10       dp0 are limited to a maximum of 512 bytes.  Each write call is sent  as
11       a  single  record.  Seven bits from each byte are written along with an
12       eighth odd parity bit.  The sync must be user supplied.  Each read call
13       returns  characters  received  from  a  single  record.  Seven bits are
14       returned unaltered; the eighth bit is set if the byte was not  received
15       in  odd  parity.  A 10 second time out is set and a zero-byte record is
16       returned if nothing is received in that time.
