7: Setup Mode: Channel Configuration

a) Incoming Connection

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never Accept Incoming

Rejects all external connection attempts.

 

 

 

 

 

Accept with DTR Active

Accepts external connection requests only when the DTR

 

 

input is asserted. Cannot be used with Modem Mode.

 

 

 

 

 

Always Accept

Accepts any incoming connection when a connection is

 

 

not already established. Default setting.

 

 

 

 

b) Response

 

 

Character Response

A single character is transmitted to the serial port when there is a change in connection state:

C = connected, D = disconnected, N = host unreachable.

This option is overridden when the Active Start Modem Mode or Active Start Host List is in effect. Default setting is Nothing (quiet).

This option is overridden when the Active Start Modem Mode or Active Start Host List is in effect. Default setting is Nothing (quiet).

c) Active Startup

No Active Startup

Does not attempt to initiate a connection under any

 

circumstance. Default setting.

 

 

With Any Character

Attempts to connect when any character is received from

 

the serial port.

 

 

With DTR Active

Attempts to connect when the DTR input changes from not

 

asserted to asserted.

 

 

With a Specific Start

Attempts to connect when it receives a specific start

Character

character from the serial port. The default start character is

 

carriage return.

 

 

Manual Connection

Attempts to connect when directed by a command string

 

received from the serial port. The first character of the

 

command string must be a C (ASCII 0x43), and the last

 

character must be either a carriage return (ASCII 0x0D) or a

 

line feed (0x0A). No blanks or space characters may be in

 

the command string. Between the first and last command

 

string characters must be a full or partial destination IP

 

address and may be a destination port number.

 

The IP address must be in standard decimal-dot notation

 

and may be a partial address, representing the least

 

significant 1, 2, or 3 bytes of the remote IP address. The

 

period is required between each pair of IP address numbers.

 

If present, the port number must follow the IP address, must

 

be presented as a decimal number in the range 1-65535, and

 

must be preceded by a forward slash (ASCII 0x2F). The

 

slash separates the IP address and the port number. If you

 

omit the port number from a command string, the internally

 

stored remote port number starts a connection.
