ports support several port operating modes. These include
Console
Management and Console Management Direct modes for device control; and
Real COM Port , Virtual Modem , TCP Server , TCP Client , and UDP Mode for
Serial-to-Ethernet connectivity and applications that require COM ports, serial
tunneling, or where TCP/UDP Socket functionality is needed. An explanation
of the functions performed by the various operating modes is provided in the
sections that follow.
The Operating Mode is selectable from the Port Access - Properties page,
under the Operation Mode tab, as shown above. From this page you can set the
Port Operating Modes that are discussed in this chapter. See Operating Mode ,
