

>Serial Ports> Advanced serial settings> TCP Settings> Timeout: xx seconds.

If the port is blocked then the device will renew/unblock the port by itself after the chosen timeout.

This way a permanent timeout of the device will be avoided. The loss of data will be reduced

significantly. For an RMS-CONVERTER interval of 60 seconds, a timeout of 10 to 30 seconds

would be meaningful.
