2) Operations

Serial data transfer

Whenever the serial device sends data through the serial port of the Pro Series, data will be

accumulated on the serial port buffer of the Pro Series. If the buffer is full or the time gap reaches the

inter-character timeout (See Options in section 4.2.6. Serial Port Parameters for details on inter-

character timeout), the Pro Series connect to the registered remote host(s). If a TCP session has not

been established yet and the Pro Series succeeds in connecting to the remote host, the data in the

serial port buffer will be transferred to the host. Otherwise, all the data stored in the buffer will be

cleared.

Session disconnection

The connected session will be disconnected when the remote host sends disconnection request or

when no data transfer activity is found through the serial port for certain amount of time, which is

Inactivity timeout”. All the data remained in the serial port buffer will be cleared when it is

disconnected.

Connection request from remote host

All the incoming TCP connection requests will be rejected in TCP client mode.

3) Parameters

TCP listening port

This is the TCP port number through which a remote host can connect a TCP session, and, send and

receive data. Incoming connection request(s) to the ports other than TCP Listening Port will be

rejected. The Pro Series does restrict the port number from 1024 to 65535 and if it is set as 0 only

outgoing connection is permitted. (TCP server mode)

User authentication

If the User authentication option is enabled, the user can access the port after entering the correct

user ID and password. Please refer to the section 5.9. User Administration for details of user

management.

Telnet protocol

In TCP mode, Pro Series supports Telnet Com Port Control Option (RFC2217 compliant) so that user

can control serial parameters like baud rate, data bits and flow control option using his local RFC2217-

compliant Telnet client program. (Please refer to section 4.2.6. Serial Port Parameters for more detail

information about serial parameters)

Usually this option is used with the RFC2217-compliant COM port redirector so that user can control

parameters of serial ports of Pro Series using his serial port application program.
