Automatic Connection Address

Using either of the serial ports, an automatic TCP connection to a network node can
be configured by setting the remote IP address and the TCP port number parameters.

If automatic connection is selected, all parameters must be supplied in full.

If manual connection startup is configured (with “C” + address/port), only the part
not supplied in the command string is used. In manual mode, the last byte of the
address must be supplied.
