When a device connected to an industrial serial server can be transparently connected to another device on industrial serial
server; data and modem control signals are exchanged. This protocol can overcome the limitations of traditional serial
communication distances and introduce many new usability and feasibility for serial device control. In short, Remote

remote pairing host. The remote pair master/slave topology in
