Port Number

The setting represents the source port number in TCP connections. It is the number that identifies the channel for remote initiating connections.

Port No (10001) ? _

The default setting for Port 1 is 10001. The range is 1-65535, except for the following reserved port numbers:

Warning: We recommend that you not use the reserved port numbers for this setting as incorrect operation may result.

Use Port 0 for the outgoing local port to change with each connection. The port range is 50,000-59,999. Each subsequent connection increments the number by 1 (it wraps back around to 50,000).

Only use this automatic port increment feature to initiate a connection using TCP. Set the port to a non-zero value when the unit is in a passive mode or when using UDP instead of TCP.

Connect Mode

Connect Mode defines how the unit makes a connection, and how it reacts to incoming connections over the network.

ConnectMode (C0) ? _

Enter Connect Mode options in hexadecimal notation. The default setting is C0.

Note: All bit positions in the table that are blank represent “don’t care” bits for that particular option, which can be set to either a 0 or 1 value.
