Thanks for getting me past that hurdle, I now have the 'Example'
program chatting between RPC's and the settings seem to remain in
existance for the use of serial: from the CLI after quitting.
For example, using 'Example' to set the speed to 115200 allows
me to pipecopy to serial: a text file to the other rpc which is
running !Connector in ASCII mode (also set at 115200)
I have yet to find wether all of the block driver is used by
serial: but so far everything has been rock solid using small
data flows.

The Iyonix and internal32 doesn't initialise with 'Example' 
It may be that the internal32 driver was written at a later date
and by a different person.
