NPort 6000 Series Configuring Serial Port Operation Modes
Terminal BIN (TERM_BIN)
Terminal Binary mode can be used to transfer files with XMODEM or ZMODEM. You are only allowed to open one
terminal session at a time when in Terminal Binary mode.
TCP alive check time (default=7 min): This field specifies how long the NPort 6000 will wait for a response
to keep-alive packets before closing the TCP connection. The NPort 6000 checks connection status by sending
periodic keep-alive packets. If the remote host does not respond to the packet within the time specified in this
field, the NPort 6000 will force the existing TCP connection to close. For socket and device control modes, the
NPort 6000 will listen for another TCP connection from another host after closing the connection. If TCP alive
check time is set to 0, the TCP connection will remain open even if there is no response to the keep-alive
packets.
Inactivity time (default=0 min): This field specifies how long the NPort 6000 will wait for incoming and
outgoing data through the serial port before closing the TCP connection. The TCP connection is closed if there
is no incoming or outgoing data through the serial port for the specified Inactivity time. If this field is set to
0, the TCP connection is kept active until a connection close request is received.
ATTENTION
Inactivity time
should at least be set larger than that of Force transmit
time. To prevent the unintended
loss of data
due to the session being disconnected, it is highly recommended that this value is set large
enough so that the intended data transfer is completed.
Auto-Link Protocol: If this field is set to None, the NPort 6000 will not connect to the host automatically. If
Auto-Link Protocol is set to Telnet or Rlogin, the NPort 6000 will connect to the host automatically using the
specified protocol.
Primary and Secondary host address: If specified, the fields designate permanent hosts to which the
terminal will always be connected.
Telnet TCP port (default=23): By default, the Telnet TCP port number is set to 23, which is the default TCP
port number for Telnet.
Terminal type (default=ansi): Some older terminal applications may require that the terminal type be
transmitted before the connection can be established. You may need to refer to the server’s documentation to
determine the appropriate terminal type. For most applications, this setting will be unnecessary and will have
no effect
Quit (default=(^E) 0x05): This field configures the quick key used to disconnect the link between the
current terminal session and the remote host. It is not necessary for binary communication.
Authentication type (default=None): This field allows you to configure the method used, if any, to verify a
user’s ID and authorization.
