Multihost Settings
(
Use only if operating
in Packet mode
without MAC)
Multihost is a legacy feature that has been superseded by the Packet
w/MAC feature. It should only be used in legacy systems or in special
use cases.
The
Multihost Settings
screen is used only when Packet mode is selected. It
provides an alternative way to run multiple host applications at the
Master unit, which may be operating on different computers. Multihost
operation is described in more detail in the
SD Serial/Telnet Manage-
ment Supplement
, Part No. 05-6193A01.
Packet w/MAC operation replaces multihost operation, and is the rec-
ommended method for passing multiple data streams. See Device Set-
tings starting on Page 46 for instructions on setting the Radio Mode to
Packet w/MAC.
