6.5 Hardware Mode
In Hardware mode, the:
• RS-232 data is passed from any input to all outputs
• VP-14xl routes the reply from the output port defined by the DIP-switches 2,
3 and 4 (see Section 6.2 ). For reliable operation, only one port should be
defined
6.6 Software Mode
In Software mode, the VP-14xl routes the data and reply based on the Protocol
2000 commands received from the PC or other device connected to any of the
inputs (RS-232, RS-485 or USB), see Section 8 .
Note: Only one reply port can be opened at a time. It is possible to open multiple
direct ports but only one reply port can be open at a time.
This means that if port1 is currently open and you then open port2, the port 1 is
automatically closed. If you then open port 1 again, port 2 is automatically closed.
In this way it is possible to close all reply ports, as well as all direct ports.
