RS-485

– When this mode is selected and the server updated, the

selected serial port will become an RS-485 serial port on the
server.

Connection At

When the

Connection Mode

field is set to

Client

or

Client (no

heartbeat)

, this field becomes active, allowing the ESP901/902 (acting

as a client) to connect to the server either on

Power up

or on

Data

Arrival

(first character arriving).

Max Connection

This field allows the user to configure the

Serial Server

to have up to

eight TCP connections.

Remote IP Address

This is a security feature activated by entering the IP address of the
desired client. The

Serial Server

will only communicate with the listed

IP address and all other requests for connection will be filtered out. The

Serial Server

must be set up as a

TCP

or

UDP Server

to use this

feature. The default setting is

255.255.255.255

.

If

Paired Mode

is not being used, do not change this setting until the

application has been tested and is communicating properly. Then
activate the address filtering feature.
