Description
This field specifies what kind application you will be using for this serial port.
Depending on the application, different operation modes and related settings
will be displayed. For an introduction to the different operation modes, please
refer to Chapter 4.
Disable: This serial port will be disabled.
Device Control: This serial port will be used to control a device using legacy
software installed on a Windows, Linux, or UNIX system. Drivers will need to
be installed that will allow your software to communicate with the device as if it
were physically attached to a local COM or TTY port. You may select between
RealCOM and RFC2217 operation modes.
Socket: This serial port will be used for a TCP or UDP socket-based
application. You may select between TCP Client, TCP Server, and UDP
operation modes.
Pair Connection: This serial port will be used to communicate directly with a
serial port on another NPort device server on the network. You may select
between Pair Connection Master and Pair Connection Slave operation modes.
Ethernet Modem: This serial port will operate in Ethernet Modem mode. A PC
will use this serial port to connect to the network, treating the NPort as if it were
a modem.
Terminal: This serial port will be used to connect to a serial-based terminal to a
server on the network. You may select between Terminal (TERM_ASC) and
Terminal (TERM_BIN) operation modes.
Reverse Terminal: This serial port will operate in Reverse Terminal mode.
Terminal sessions will be opened from the network to a server that is connected
to this serial port.
