Hi Charlie,

I finally had the time working on this again and just wanted to let you (and 
everybody else who it reading this) that I got enough serial ports working.

With standard serial connectors you can use

COM1 as /dev/ttyAM1
COM2 as /dev/ttts0

(I refer to COM1/COM2 as the headers on the board btw. pin 1 is facing the 
outside of the board)

With a 3 plugs in one connector (cut a standard connector and put 3 serial 
plugs instead of one on the plug side - only need to solder a couple of wires) 
you can add 2 more serial ports to COM1.

COM1 (pin 7 Tx, pin 8 Rx) as /dev/ttts1
COM1 (pin 4 Tx, pin 1 Rx) as /dev/ttts2

I needed to connect ground (pin 5) to all plugs to get the communication 
working.

That gives me 4 serial rs232 port without any additional equipment. From the 
sparse documentation I would never figured this out by myself. So thank you 
everybody for guiding me in this.

Cheers,

Ole
