6 Configure the Operation Modes
The configuration as
Server
(top part) requires the same parameters as the Driver Mode, hence
TCP Port(Control)
and
TCP Port(Data)
. Also the
KeepAlive
function operates the same.
The configuration as
Client
(bottom) first requires a destination. Here it is given by name, but a
direct IP Address may be more usual. On the destination there is also a
TCP Port(Control)
and
TCP Port(Data)
to accept the connect of the NetCom
+
.
The
Connect
methods are the same as with the TCP Raw Client mode. So connections to the
partners are permanent, last until there is no activity for a given time, or they are controlled by
the DSR signal.
Attention: You
must not
configure both NetCom
+
with a
Connect
option configured as
Permanent
.
This will result in each of them attempting to contact the other at the same time. Both NetCom
+
will reject the connect, because they are already busy establishing a connect of their own. Instead
create an asymmetric configuration: either use one of the NetCom
+
in Driver Mode, or configure
it with an empty Destination parameter. Or consider to have a connection on demand, i.e. use the
Triggered
option.
