+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ucom
+.Nd USB tty support
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following line in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device ucom"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a
+module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+ucom_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver attaches to USB modems, serial ports, and other devices that need
+to look like a tty.
+The
+.Nm
+driver shows a behavior like a
+.Xr tty 4 .
+This means that normal programs such as
+.Xr tip 1
+or
+.Xr ppp 8
+can be used to access the device.
+.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
+The following variables are available as both
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variables and
+.Xr loader 8
+tunables:
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Va hw.usb.ucom.debug
+Debug output level, where 0 is debugging disabled and larger values increase
+debug message verbosity.
+Default is 0.
+.It Va hw.usb.ucom.device_mode_console
+When set to 1, the
+.Nm
+driver will mark terminals as console devices when operating in device mode.
+Default is 1.
+.It Va hw.usb.ucom.pps_mode
+Enables and configure PPS capture mode as described below.
+.El
+.Sh Pulse Per Second (PPS) Timing Interface
+The
+.Nm
+driver can capture PPS timing information as defined in RFC 2783.
+The API, accessed via
+.Xr ioctl 2 ,
+is available on the tty device.
+To use the PPS capture feature with
+.Xr ntpd 8 ,
+symlink the tty device to
+.Va /dev/pps0.
+.Pp
+The
+.Va hw.usb.ucom.pps_mode
+sysctl configures the PPS capture mode.
+It can be set in
+.Xr loader.conf 5
+or
+.Xr sysctl.conf 5 .
+The following capture modes are available:
+.Bl -tag -compact -offset "mmmm" -width "mmmm"
+.It 0
+Capture disabled (default).
+.It 1
+Capture pulses on the CTS line.
+.It 2
+Capture pulses on the DCD line.
+.El

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+driver was adopted from
+.Nx
+in March of 2002.
+This manual page was adopted from
+.Nx
+by
+.An Tom Rhodes Aq Mt trhodes@FreeBSD.org
+in April 2002.
+.Sh BUGS
+Prior to
+.Fx 6.0
+.Nm
+created
+.Pa /dev/ucom?
+rather than the uniform device names created today.
+Old scripts must be adjusted accordingly.
