Operating modes
W5500S2E module supports TCP server, TCP client, and UDP and Modbus modes. The
followings demonstrate these operating modes.
3.1
TCP server mode
Figure 3-1 TCP server mode diagram
In TCP server mode, W5500S2E listens on a local port and waiting for the connection
from a TCP client. They can start communication each other after link established.
3.2
TCP client mode
Figure 3-2 TCP client mode diagram
In TCP client mode, W5500S2E connects to a preset TCP server. If failure to connect, it
can be configured to re-connect continuously. They can start communication each other
after link established.
3.3
UDP mode
Figure 3-3 UDP mode diagram
In UDP mode, W5500S2E acts as an UDP peer to send data to another preset UDP peer.
W5500S2E can also receive data from other UDP peers.
