3.2 MOXA Serial Port Naming Convention

Each MOXA serial port are referenced as port number in terms of programming. The port number is automatically assigned once the starting port number is decided by user when configuring the Async Concentrators.

For example, if there is only one Async Concentrator configured and the starting port number is 1, then the mapping of serial port numbers will be as depicted.
