Operation

9.1.3.2. PortBuffers

The Status Screen lists the amount of Buffer Memory currently used by each port. The

TSM/RSM uses buffer memory in two different ways, depending on the user-selected

port mode.

• Any-to-Any,Passive,andModemModePorts: When two ports are

communicating at dissimilar baud rates, the buffer memory prevents data overflow

at the slower port.

• BufferModePorts: Stores data received from connected devices. The user

issues a Read Buffer command (/R) from an Any-to-Any or Modem Mode port to

retrieve data.

If the Status Screen indicates an accumulation of data, the /E (Erase Buffer) command

can be invoked to clear the buffer.

Note:WhenaBufferModeportisreconfiguredasanAny-to-Any,Passive,

orModemModeport,anydatastoredinthebufferpriortochangingtheport

modewillbelost.
