9�2 TCP-/UDP port numbers (Menu: TCP/IP Mode)
In the menu branch Setup Port x r TCP/IP Mode r Port List
you can configure the TCP server ports for all services with
access to the serial ports on the Com-Server. Changes to the
port numbers must be set the same in the client-side commu-
nication partner. A value of 0 disables the service.

Changes to the factory-set port numbers as well as
disabling services should be done with caution, since
these can result in a connection break to any connected com-
munication partners such as the COM Port Redirector. If the
Local Port is disabled, no data exchange with the serial con-
nected device is possible. The default values can be restored
by resetting the Com-Server to its factory default settings.
Local Port TCP
(Default = 8000/Port A, 8100/Port B, 8200/Port C)
Under this port number a data-transparent TCP connection to
the serial port on the Com-Server is made available. The port
is required for use in the operating modes TCP Server, COM
Port Redirector and Box-to-Box.

Controlport
(Default = 9094/Port A, 9194/Port B, 9294/Port C)
The control port allows configuration of the serial port on
the Com-Server over the network. Use of the control port is
required for operation together with the COM Port Redirector.
