This virtualisation layer means that serial devices can be shared between different processes. The virtualisation layer also allows developers to write <i>software serial ports</i>. These are known as CSYs and are generally networking protocol stacks that implement a serial interface. In this context a serial interface means the <xref href="GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF.dita"><apiname>RComm</apiname></xref> API. For example, <xref href="GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF.dita#GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF/GUID-B0B6BC5D-4BCD-3A74-9E1C-17BA58BB7B33"><apiname>RComm::Read()</apiname></xref>, <xref href="GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF.dita#GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF/GUID-27B1F841-8478-33E0-A168-11DC468183C0"><apiname>RComm::Write()</apiname></xref> and <xref href="GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF.dita#GUID-3B4E8ED5-72F7-3E51-B188-3C1045526DDF/GUID-9791155C-BD13-3B3A-BB0A-C1F5BC9B4A38"><apiname>RComm::Signal()</apiname></xref>. </p> <p>Serial port performance is determined by the APIs used and the configuration for the ports. A client application must consider port configuration and handshaking in order to get optimal performance. </p> </conbody></concept>
