Menu Default Descriptions
Parity None
Set parity bit check scheme..
(Options: None, Odd, Even)
Flow Control None
Set the flow control scheme.
(Options: None, Xon/Xoff, RTS/CTS)
Device Type DataOnly
Set the signal line checking method for the device to be connected to the
given serial port.
If the mode is set to Data Only, only TxD, RxD, and GND signal lines are
used in inter-device communication. If the mode is set to Modem
Signals, all modem signals except RI(Ring Indicator) are asserted, tested,
and used in communication.
(Options: Data Only, Modem Signals)

Port
0.0.0.0 /
4000 When the Operation Mode is either TCP Client or UDP Client, set the IP
address and the socket number to connect to..
Keepalive
Check
Time
0
After a certain amount of time passes without any communication after
the socket connection between the given serial port and the server is
established, automatically disconnect the socket connection. Valid from
0 to 32767 sec.
For example, if the operation mode is set to TCP Server and Alive Check
Time is configured to 10, TCP Server will listen for the client’s
connection and eventually establish a connection. Since the check time
is 10 seconds, the server will wait for 10 seconds until the client
connected to it sends any packet. If there is no data for 10 seconds,
server will quit the connection and return to the listening state. This
option is helpful in preventing communication obstacles that occur when
either Eddy or the client quits unexpectedly (i.e. Sudden black out,
reboot, LAN cable cut, etc.). In these cases, the other part of
communication might not recognize the failure of its partner. Such
misunderstanding can cause communication errors.
If the value is set to 0, this function is disabled. Once connected socket
will be retained until explicitly disconnected.
(Only applies to TCP Client, TCP Server, TCP Broadcast, and TCP
Multiplex operation modes.)
Latency
Time
0
This needs to be set when consecutive data from the given serial port
needs to be transmitted to socket at once.
For example, if 100 bytes of character string are to be transmitted from
the serial device to a server through Eddy, bypass is set to 0 for the
latency time. Although it provides immediate sending through Eddy, the
server could be received a lot parts of divided packets.
If the latency time is not 0, Eddy will wait for the time and check new
data. If there is new data, Eddy repeatedly wait for the time. Otherwise,
Eddy will transfer the buffered data, but it could not run in real time.
