For example, “Startup/None” means that as soon as the device

can only be closed manually. “DCD On/DCD Off” means that the TCP
connection is opened when the DCD signal is on, and closed when
the DCD signal is off.
If you want to use the Inactivity Time parameter to close the
connection when the serial device is inactive, you must set
Connection Control to “Any Character/Inactivity time”.
