HARDWIRE(8)		  BSD System Manager's Manual		   HARDWIRE(8)

NAME
     hardwire - control hardwired lines

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/getty/hardwire-function [-command command] [-dte-speeds baudrate] -f
	      filedes [-stty-modes mode [...]] [-term type]

DESCRIPTION
     There are four hardwire-function scripts:

     call	  Configure the lines according to the parameters defined in
		  the /etc/ttys.conf file and passed in on the command line.

     condition	  Same as the call script.

     watcher	  Configure the line as in the call script and then wait for
		  CD and/or CTS to be raised.  Once the CD and/or CTS is
		  raised, exec command, or /usr/bin/login if command was not
		  specified.

     The options understood by the hardwire- scripts are:

     -command	   For watcher scripts use command instead of /usr/bin/login.

     -dte-speeds   Set the baud rate of the serial line to be baudrate.

     -f		   Use the file specified by filedes as the device.  This is
		   almost always of the form /dev/fd/N.

     -stty-modes   Use the specified modes when setting up the serial line.

     -term	   For watcher scripts, set the terminal type to type instead
		   of unknown.
