S38 Activate/Deactivate TC57 Code
Range
0 ... 1
Default
0
The advantage of the TC 57 settings is that on receiving a frame with this format (from
the RS232 line) the frame is immediately sent on to the Ethernet without having to wait
for a timeout. This greatly improves communication speed and performance.
0 = registers 38-41 are inactive (default). 1 = registers 38-41 are active.
