4.18 USB Port Configuration
You can use a USB to RS232 converter to send data out of the serial port from the Ethernet
network in the same manner as the RS232 expansion port function. To specify the values for
the USB port parameters, click USB Port in the Configuration section of the main menu. The
following tables describe the parameters available in the configuration form. IPv6 TCP/UDP
client/server are supported.
Item Description
Baudrate Applied communication speed.
Data Bits Number of data bits.
Parity Control parity bit:
• none – data will be sent without parity.
• even – data will be sent with even parity.
• odd – data will be sent with odd parity.
Stop Bits Number of stop bit.
Split Timeout Time to rupture reports. If the gap between two characters exceeds
the parameter in milliseconds, any buffered characters will be sent
over the Ethernet port.
Protocol Communication protocol:
• TCP – communication using a linked protocol TCP.
• UDP – communication using a unlinked protocol UDP.
Mode Mode of connection:
• TCP server – The router will listen for incoming TCP connection
requests.
• TCP client – The router will connect to a TCP server on the
specified IP address and TCP port.
Server Address When set to TCP client above, it is necessary to enter the Server ad-
dress and TCP port. IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are allowed.
TCP Port TCP/UDP port used for communications. The router uses the value
for both the server and client modes.
Inactivity Timeout Time period after which the TCP/UDP connection is interrupted in
case of inactivity.
