xDirect User Guide 52
Table 8-11 Disconnect Mode Options
(1)The Telnet Com Port Control feature is used in conjunction with Com Port Redirector. The xDirect sends the Ter minal
Type upon an outgoing connection.
(2)A password is required for a connection to the serial port from the netwo rk.
(3)The TCP connection closes even if the remote site does no t acknowledge the disconnection.
(4)When there is a network connection to o r from the serial port, the state LED turns off instead of blinking.
(5)When Ctrl+D or Hex 04 is detected, the connection is dropped. Both Telnet Com Port Cntrl and Disconnect with
EOT must be enabled for Disconnect with EOT to function properly. Ctrl+D is only detected going from the serial port
to the network.
(6)When Modem Control In transitions from a high state to a low state, the network connection to or from the serial port
drops.
