1.9.7 SMTP Configuration - sending emails
Note:
RFC 2217 is a Standard Client Server Protocol used as a standard protocol when using multiple
device servers (ComServer.) The RFC 2217 protocol allows for the use of various "COM port
redirector" softwares for virtual Com Port Interfaces on the PC.
For remote access to terminal equipment with a serial interface, a virtual COM port connection can additionally be
established over long distances as a standard router function.
MC Technologies MC-LR router is optionally equipped with an RS232 or RS485 interface at X1 for this purpose. For de-
tailed information, please refer to the MC Technologies Application Note 41 Router (COM-Port connection via MC router
- RS232/RS485).
