Serial Port Profiles
TCP Sockets Profile
Overview
The TCP Socket profile allows for a serial device to communicate over a TCP network. The TCP
connection can be initiated from a host on the network and/or a serial device. This is typically used
with an application on a Workstation or Server that communicates to a device using a specific TCP
socket. This is often referred to as a RAW connection.
Functionality
The TCP Sockets profile permits a raw connection to be established in either direction, meaning that
the connection can be initiated by either the Workstation/Server or the IOLAN.
Dial Timeout The number of seconds the IOLAN will wait to establish a connection to a
remote modem.
Range: 1-99
Default: 45 seconds
Dial Retry The number of times the IOLAN will attempt to re-establish a connection with
a remote modem.
Range: 0-99
Default: 2
Modem The name of the predefined modem that is used on this line.
