3.3.12. 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 SE5001A in the TCP Client mode. To do so, refer to section
to enable Virtual
COM, so that SE5001A becomes aware of the commands. Note that there is no need to configure Virtual COM on
the Operating System because Virtual COM ports would not be used.
3.3.13. TCP Server Application: Configure SE5001A 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 SE5001As to work in pair, one would be the Pair
Connection Master (0) and the other would be the Pair Connection Slave.
