Remember the Destination Port here in order to enter this information in Serial/IP
Virtual COM’s Control Panel later.

4.2.4 TCP Client Application: Enable RFC 2217

The underlying protocol of Virtual COM is based on RFC 2217, the Telnet COM Control Option.

Therefore, it is possible to use RFC 2217 with SW550X in the TCP Client mode. To do so, refer

to

Sec. 4.2.3

to enable Virtual COM, so that SW550X becomes aware of the commands. Note

that there is no need to configure Virtual COM on the Operation System because Virtual COM

ports would not be used.

4.2.5 TCP Server Application: Configure SW550X as a Pair Connection Master

Pair Connection is useful when pairing up two serial devices over the Ethernet or when it is

impossible to install Virtual COM in the serial device. Pair connection does require two

SW550X to work in pair, one would be the Pair Connection Master and the other would be the

Pair Connection Slave.
