Serial port over TCP/UDP settings
The GWG Gateway provides a way for a user to connect from a network connection to a serial port.
It provides all the serial port setup, a configuration file to configure the ports, a control login for modifying
port parameters, monitoring ports, and controlling ports. The GWG Gateway supports RFC 2217 (remote
control of serial port parameters).

Serial port over
TCP/UDP settings
Enable serial to Ethernet converter. This provides a way for a user to connect
from a network connection to a serial port.
Modbus gateway
settings
Enable translation between Modbus/TCP and Modbus/RTU.
Bits per second
The unit and attached serial device, such as a modem, must agree on a speed or
baud rate to use for the serial connection. Valid baud rates are 300, 1200, 2400,
4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 or 115200.
Data bits Indicates the number of bits in a transmitted data package.
Parity
Checks for the parity bit. None is the default.
Stop bits
The stop bit follows the data and parity bits in serial communication. It indicates
the end of transmission. The default is 1.
Flow control
Flow control manages data flow between devices in a network to ensure it is
processed efficiently. Too much data arriving before a device is prepared to
manage it causes lost or retransmitted data. None is the default.
