Overview
The TruePort utility acts as a COM port redirector that allows applications to talk to serial devices
across a network as though the serial devices were directly attached to the server. For IOLAN I/O
models, you can also monitor and control I/O through the TruePort client.
Functionality
Since some older applications may not support the higher baud rates that the IOLAN is capable of
achieving, the baud rate can be mapped to a different value on the IOLAN. Through TruePort, you
can map the baud rate of the host COM port to a higher baud rate for the serial line that connects the
serial device and the IOLAN. See TruePort for more information about the TruePort utility.
Field Definitions
Configure the following parameter:
Actual Baud Rate The actual baud rate that runs between the IOLAN and the connected serial
device.
Range: 50-230400, you can also specify a custom baud rate
