3.2.12. Setting Packet Delimiter

Packet delimiter is a way of packaging serial data. It can prevent serial data from being truncated by packing them in
the same Ethernet packet. SE5001A provides two kinds of packet delimiter: Timer and Character. The default timer
is 2 ms (0ms to disable this function). This means that if SE5001A does not receive new serial data within 2ms, it will
send out all the serial data in buffer in one packet over Ethernet. The way to change the delimiter timer is shown in
the following figure (Figure 3.14):

Another kind is character delimiter. If the character delimiter is set to 0x0d, this means SE5001A will send out all the
serial data in buffer in one packet over Ethernet only if it reads 0x0d. The following figure shows how to configure
character delimiter:
