4.1 RS-232-A to/from RS-232-B with LAN Monitoring

At power-up, the VSA-31-IP unit defaults to a RS232-A to/from RS232-B path.
Communication occurs without user intervention at whatever baud rate, parity, data
bits and stop bits used by the devices connected to the RS-232-A and RS-232-B
ports.

All communication along the RS-232-A and RS-232-B path is echoed to the IP
Address of the VSA-31-IP on Port 1001. This communication can be monitored
using a HyperTerminal TCP connection.
The baud rate, parity, data bits and stop bits of the VSA-31-IP unit must match the
settings of the devices communicating on the RS-232-A and RS-232-B ports.

The VSA-31-IP unit Serial Parameters may be altered by the following methods:

Use the Hall Research VSA-31-IP Software GUI
Use the Hall Research DS Manager to change the related parameters
Use a HyperTerminal TCP connection to the IP Address on the VSA-31-IP

using a Telnet connection to Port 23 using the appropriate commands.
