public class LSerialAdapter extends DSPortAdapter
The LSerialAdapter class implements the DSPortAdapter interface for a legacy 1-Wire serial interface adapters such as the DS9097.

Instances of valid LSerialdapter's are retrieved from methods in OneWireAccessProvider.

The DSPortAdapter methods can be organized into the following categories:

8/11/2003 - shughes - modified to support RXTX instead of javax.comm
