host (see the TruePort documentation for information on how to set up this feature on

the TruePort host). When this option is turned off, the IOLAN will initiate the
connection to the TruePort host. The default is off.

signal-active

This option has the following impact based on the state of the TruePort connection:

z

TruePort Lite Mode—When enabled, the EIA-232 signals remain active before,

during, and after the TruePort connection is established. When disabled, the
EIA-232 signals remain inactive when there is no TruePort connection and active

when there is a TruePort connection.

z

TruePort Full Mode—When enabled, the EIA-232 signals remain active before
and after the TruePort connection and the TruePort client will control the state of

the signals during the established TruePort connection. When disabled, the

EIA-232 signals remain inactive before and after the TruePort connection and the
TruePort client will control the state of the signals during the established TruePort

connection.
