TruePort Baud Rate Tab

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 on page 375 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
