Line Commands

session strings

Controls the sending of ASCII strings to serial devices at session start and session termination as follows;

zSend at Start—If configured, this string will be sent to the serial device when the serial device is detected (i.e. signals come up). The maximum size of this field is 128 bytes/characters.

zSend at End—If configured, this string will be sent to the serial device when the TCP session on the LAN is terminated. The maximum size of this field is 128 bytes/characters

zDelay after Send—If configured, will inset a delay( in milliseconds) after the string is sent to the device. This delay can be used to provide the serial device with time to process the string before the session is initiated or terminated.

Default: 10 ms

sess-timer

Enter a time, in seconds, for which the Session Timer will run. Use this timer to forcibly close the session (connection). When the Session Timer expires, the IOLAN will end the connection. The default value is 0 seconds so the port will never timeout. The maximum value is 4294967 seconds (about 49 days).

stop-bits

Specifies the number of stop bits that follow a byte.

term-type

Specifies the type of terminal connected to the line:

zDumb

zWYSE60

zVT100

zANSI

zTVI925

zIBM3151TE

zVT320 (specifically supporting VT320-7)

zHP700 (specifically supporting HP700/44)

zTerm1, Term2, Term3 (user defined terminals)

user

For DSLogin line service, makes this a line that is dedicated to the specified user. Only this user will be able to log in on this line and they won’t need to enter their login name

-just their password. discard-characters-in-error

When enabled, the IOLAN will discard characters received with a parity or framing error.

Default: Disabled.
