SeaMAC Windows Applications

SeaBERT

Multithreaded bit error rate test application for verifying communication channel performance. SeaBERT can be used in a loopback or point-to-point test configuration. This software tracks bit errors and sync losses while displaying transmit and receive frame counts, the number of bytes verified, and driver error statistics.

ComSync

Download the ACB Toolkit Disk
ComSync is a family of serial communications software drivers that intercept BIOS INT14h calls from Async DOS programs such as Procomm™ and Crosstalk™ and route the calls out an ACB card to a CSU/DSU for transmission over digital lines at high speeds. Using ComSync, high speed file transfers can be completed easily and effeciently reducing processor overhead by as much as 20%. Drivers are available for DOS. Drivers for Windows 3.1x, Windows 95/98, and Windows NT are planned for development. The family of ComSync drivers is included on the ACB Toolkit Disk with every Sealevel 85x30 SCC based card purchased.
