8: Setup Mode: Channel Configuration
DisConnTime (00:00) ?:
To disable the inactivity timeout, enter 00:00. Range is 0 (disabled) to 5999 seconds (99
minutes, 59 seconds). Default is 0.
Send Characters Enter up to two characters in hexadecimal representation in sendchar.
SendChar 1 (00) ? _
SendChar 2 (00) ? _
If the unit receives a character on the serial line that matches one of these characters, it
sends the character immediately, along with any awaiting characters, to t he TCP connection.
This action minimizes the response time for specific protocol characters on the serial line (for
example, ETX, EOT). Setting the first sendchar to 00 disables the recognition of the
characters. Alternatively, the unit can interpret two characters as a s equence (see Pack
Control on page 53).
