Using Multiple Ports
You can communicate to either the Ethernet port or the RS-232 port (COM1) at any given time; the port
that you communicate to first is the only one that is recognized until you cycle power.
You can communicate to the Ethernet port or the RS-232 port (COM1) while the 6K is also communicating
with an RP240 via the RS-232/485 port (COM2).
