It
would help if you gave a few more details about the exact model of
motor.
The
latest release of the motor support (R6-1, from http://www.aps.anl.gov/upd/people/sluiter/epics/motor/R6-1/motorR6-1.tar.gz)
includes a driver for Newport motor controllers, using Asyn as the
low-level protocol to talk to the motor controller. There is also a driver
for Delta-Tau motor controllers (tpmac at http://epics.svn.sourceforge.net/epics/applications/tags/tpmac/3-3/)
which also uses this release of motor support, and serial Asyn as the lowest
layer transport to the motor controller.
To support your motor, you
could have a look at one of these, and adapt it to talk the protocol required by
your serial-port motor. The ethernet/serial converter box should be
transparently supported by Asyn, if you're lucky.
