Serial Port Options
The Serial Port Options tab of Configuration Editor lets you choose the type of emulation for a
serial port. Parallels Desktop allows up to four serial ports to be connected to a virtual machine.
Note. Configuration Editor is available only when the virtual machine is stopped.
Device Status:
If you wish to temporarily disable operations with a serial port without deleting it from the
configuration, clear the Enabled check box.
Note: If you start the operating system with the serial port disabled, it can not be connected
or disconnected when the virtual machine is running.
If you have enabled the port, you can select the Connect at startup check box to start the
guest OS with this port connected.
Emulation:
Parallels Desktop provides two ways of serial port emulation:
Use socket option.
If you have selected Use socket, the Socket Name field appears containing a default socket
name. Use it or type a new name in the following format: /tmp/<socket>. Where
<socket> is a file name.
In the second field select the role at this end of the socket.
