W&T Com-Server++ - Inqueue Copy

184
W&T Mode InQueueCopy
23�1 InQueue Copy
InQueueCopy enables reproducing the serial input data of the
Com-Server to up to six slave applications. These must be
designed as TCP clients and connect to the configured Local
Copy Port. In combination with the W&T COM Port Redirector
it is also possible to user serially communicating programs.
The InQueueCopy function works independently of the main
mode used, such as Box-to-Box, COM Port Redirector, etc. All
TCP packets to be sent on this main connection are also sent
to the clients connected to whichever Local Copy Port is set.
Data received within the slave connections are ignored and
rejected by the Com-Server.
To prevent unauthorized access to the Copy Ports, access can
be limited to particular IP addresses.
