Asentria SiteBoss 530 User Manual

character will not be interpreted as a break. This also allows the client to, within the same passthrough session, load
binary data files that may include the break character without unintentionally applying the break condition.
Each serial port may be configured independently of the others by use of two Setting Keys:
serial[].pt.breakchar
(default 0)
serial[].pt.breakcount
(default 1)
Example:
For example, say you have some device on I/O 6 that requires the serial break condition to wake up. If you
access the unit and enter passthrough mode to I/O 6, and you want to enter Ctrl-Break to apply the break
condition, and have it do that just once per passthrough session, configure this:
serial[6].pt.breakchar
=3
serial[6].pt.breakcount
=1
Ctrl-Break, at least on Windows PCs, sends ASCII character 0x03 down the wire, so this is why you would set the
breakchar to 3.
By default the unit provides passthrough access to anyone and can be further defined in the
menus. Various settings control its behavior, as discussed above with each sub-feature.
