4.0 Configuration
IP Protocol Config (Continued…)
TCP Client/Server: In this mode, the pX2 will be a combined TCP Client and Server, meaning that it can
both initiate and serve TCP connection (session) requests. Refer to the TCP Client and TCP Server
descriptions and settings described previously as all information, combined, is applicable to this mode.
UDP Point-to-Point: In this configuration the PX2 will send serial data to a specifically-defined point,
using UDP packets. This same pX2 will accept UDP packets from that same point.
Remote IP Address
IP address of distant device to which UDP packets are sent when data received at serial port.
Default: 0.0.0.0
Remote Port
UDP port of distant device mentioned above.
Default: 20001
Listening Port
UDP port which the IP Series listens to (monitors). UDP packets received on this port are
forwarded to the unit’s serial port.
Default: 20001
UDP Timeout(s)
UDP Timeout in seconds.
Default: 10
A UDP or TCP port is an
application end-point. The IP
address identifies the device
and, as an extension of the IP
address, the port essentially
‘fine tunes’ where the data is
to go ‘within the device’.
Be careful to select a port
number that is not
predetermined to be
associated with another
application type, e.g. HTTP
uses port 80.
