I've read the MixW site instructions

How can I use mixw and ui-view with my SOUNDCARD ?



MixW 2.xx does emulate KISS TNC into attached COM-port. Go to menu  
Configure, TNC emulation, and select the port used as a KISS TNC. Let  
it be COM2 in our example. Now we have the following configuration:  
TRCVR - SoundCard - MixW - COM2
COM2 must be wired to another computer or another comport on this  
computer, and be used with any program which works with KISS modem.  
For example: TRCVR - SoundCard - MixW - COM2 - COM3 - UI-View.
 >This solution requires two physical comports. Since these comports  
do nothing except transferring data between programs, we can use  
virtual comports.
Somewhere on the Internet one can find a driver of pseudo com-port,  
for example - com-port usage via Internet connection.
Our hardware setup be as follows: TRCVR - SoundCard - MixW - Emulated  
COM5 - Internet - Emulated COM6 - UI-View.
Com5 and Com6 are not physical ports and cab be placed on the same PC  
or on two PCs connected through TCP/IP.

In MixW has implemented a driver which represents an emulated tied  
couple of COM ports. It appears as "MixW serial port bridge" in  
Windows device manager window after installation. See addendum for  
details. Note: the driver for W95/W98 is not written yet.
My own, UT2UZ, setup: TRCVR - SoundCard - MixW - COM9 - MixW serial  
port bridge - COM8 - UI-View.


My setup us TRCVR -Soundcard - MixW - COM 8 (EMUL) - (MixW serial  
port??????) - COM 9 (EMUL) - UIView. Not sure what the bit in  
brackets means. Anyway it won't send data to UIView
