Also can I increase the number of serial ports on my computer for more
inputs?


You can get PCI and ISA bus cards that will add serial ports to a PC.
Two port cards are common and generally cheap, then there are cards like
the Digi serial cards that added 8 ports per card. Those were very
common in use at ISPs or other places where multiple line dial-in access
was needed.

You can also add serial ports via PCMCIA adapters.
