I emailed them and they imediately gave me all answers I needed to know. Today
I even got a manual by mail! Btw: the Hostess 16 port card works fine for me,
I just had to patch a way one statement. When I put in the mutiport stuff in
sio, I already marked that place with YYY because that place needs vendor 
specific initialisation.

All I can say for now is that they gave me great service at Comtrol. Thanks!
