NPort 6000 Series Configuring Serial Port Operation Modes
Disconnection request from local site
When the NPort 6000 is in data mode, the user can initiate disconnection by sending “+++” from the local
serial port to the NPort 6000. Some applications allow you to directly set the DTR signal to off, which will also
initiate disconnection. The NPort 6000 will enter command mode, and after one second, you can then enter
“ATH” to shut down the TCP connection The NPort 600 0 will return a “NO CARRIER” via the serial port.
The “+++” command cannot be divided. The “+” character can be changed in register S2, and the guard time,
which prefixes and suffixes the “+++”
in order to protect the raw data, can be changed in register S12.
Disconnection request from remote site
After the TCP connection has been shut down by the remote Ethernet modem or PC, the NPort 6000 will send
the “NO CARRIER” signal via the serial port and then return to command mode.
