Serial Port Profiles

Packet Definition	When enabled, this group of parameters allows you to set a variety of packet
	definition options. The first criteria that is met causes the packet to be
	transmitted. For example, if you set a Force Transmit Timer of 1000 ms and a
	Packet Size of 100 bytes, whichever criteria is met first is what will cause the
	packet to be transmitted.
	Default: Enabled
Packet Size	The number of bytes that must be received from the serial port before the
	packet is transmitted to the network. A value of zero (0) ignores this parameter.
	Range: 0-1024 bytes
	Default: 0
Idle Time	The amount of time, in milliseconds, that must elapse between characters
	before the packet is transmitted to the network. A value of zero (0) ignores this
	parameter.
	Range: 0-65535 ms
	Default: 0
Enable Trigger1	When enabled, specifies the character that when received will define when the
Character	packet is ready for transmission. The actual transmission of the packet is based
	on the Trigger Forwarding Rule.
	Range: Hex 0-FF
	Default: 0
Enable Trigger2	When enabled, creates a sequence of characters that must be received to
Character	specify when the packet is ready for transmission (if the End Trigger1
	character is not immediately followed by the End Trigger2 character, the
	IOLAN waits for another End Trigger1 character to start the End Trigger1/End
	Trigger2 character sequence). The actual transmission of the packet is based on
	the Trigger Forwarding Rule.
	Range: Hex 0-FF
	Default: 0
Frame Definition	When enabled, this group of parameters allows you to control the frame that is
	transmitted by defining the start and end of frame character(s). If the internal
	buffer (1024 bytes) is full before the EOF character(s) are received, the packet
	will be transmitted and the EOF character(s) search will continue.
	Default: Disabled
SOF1 Character	When enabled, the Start of Frame character defines the first character of the
	frame, any character(s) received before the Start of Frame character is ignored.
	Range: Hex 0-FF
	Default: 0
SOF2 Character	When enabled, creates a sequence of characters that must be received to create
	the start of the frame (if the SOF1 character is not immediately followed by the
	SOF2 character, the IOLAN waits for another SOF1 character to start the
	SOF1/SOF2 character sequence).
	Range: Hex 0-FF
	Default: 0
Transmit SOF	When enabled, the SOF1 or SOF1/SOF2 characters will be transmitted with
Character(s)	the frame. If not enabled, the SOF1 or SOF1/SOF2 characters will be stripped
	from the transmission.
	Default: Disabled
