Good day, Bill:
Byterunner sells PCI serial and parallel cards (PCI) that work with MSDOS. I
used these with TRLog for several years.
That allows adding ports IF the computer has PCI slots (these are vanishing
rapidly though). You can install MSDOS on the computer (dual boot) if it is a
Windows box. Let me know if you need more information.

Subject: Re: [Trlog] Parallel Serial Port
TRLog is a DOS program. You cannot use any USB ports or USB-to-serial or
USB-to-parallel adapters with it. You will need real serial or parallel
ports and DOS drivers that work with those ports, and with your
computer. Not easy to find any more.
Perhaps KQ2M could help you acquire some old, but working, DOS computers
that have real serial and parallel ports.
