AirWorks AWK-3131A
Web Console Configuration
3-37
TCP Server Mode
In TCP Server mode, the AWK-1137C serial port is
assigned an IP port address that is unique on your
TCP/IP network. It waits for the host computer to
establish a connection to the attached serial
device. This operation mode also supports up to
four simultaneous connections, so multiple hosts
can collect data from the attached device at the
same time.
Data transmission proceeds as follows:
1.
A host requests a connection to the
AWK-1137C serial port.
2.
Once the connection is established, data can
be transmitted in both directions—from the
host to the device, and from the device to the
host.
When
Mode
is set to
TCP Server
on a serial port’s
Operation Modes
page, you will be able to configure
additional settings such as
TCP alive check time
,
Inactivity time
, and
Max connection
.
TCP Alive Check Time
Setting
Description
Factory Default
0 to 99 min.
This field specifies how long the AWK-1137C will wait for a
response to “keep alive” packets before closing the TCP
connection. The AWK-1137C checks connection status by
sending periodic “keep alive” packets.
0: The TCP connection will remain open even if there is no
7 min.
