IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485
Web Console Configuration
5-17
Max connection
is usually used when the user needs to receive data from different hosts simultaneously. The
factory default only allows 1 connection at a time.
Max connection 1:
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 only allows 1 host to open the TCP connection to the specific serial port.
Max connection 2 to 8:
Allows two to eight host’s TCP connection request to open this IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 serial port, at the
same time. When multiple hosts establish a TCP connection to the specific serial port at the same time,
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 will duplicate the serial data and transmit it to all of the hosts. Ethernet data will be
sent on a first-in-first-out basis to the serial port when the data is received by the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485A
from the Ethernet interface.
Ignore jammed IP
Setting
Factory Default
Necessity
No or Yes
No
Optional
If you select “No” when Max connections is > 1 and the serial device is transmitting data, in the event one of
the connected hosts is not responding, the second group of data will not be sent until all the data from the first
group has been successfully transmitted. If you select “Yes” for “Ignore jammed IP,” hosts that are not
responding will be ignored, but the data will still be transmitted to all the other hosts.
Allow driver control
Setting
Factory Default
Necessity
No or Yes
No
Optional
I
f “Max connection” is greater than 1, the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 will ignore driver control commands from
all connected hosts. However, if you set “Allow driver control” to YES, control commands will be accepted. Note:
Since the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 may get configuration changes from multiple hosts, the most recent
command received will take precedence.
Packing length
Setting
Factory Default
Necessity
0 to 1024
0
Optional
Default = 0, The Delimiter Process will be followed, regardless of the length of the data packet. If the data
length (in bytes) matches the configured value, the data will be forced out. The data length can be configured
for 0 to 1024 bytes. Set to 0 if you do not need to limit the length.
Delimiter 1
Setting
Factory Default
Necessity
00 to FF
None
Optional
Delimiter 2
Setting
Factory Default
Necessity
00 to FF
None
Optional
Once the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 receives both delimiters through its serial port, it immediately packs all
data currently in its buffer and sends it to the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485’s Ethernet port.
