Serial Port Profiles

VModem Phone Number Entry

Create an entry in the Phone Number to Host Mapping window.

Configure the following parameters:

Phone Number

Specify the phone number your modem application sends to the modem. Note:

 

The IOLAN does not validate the phone number, so it must be entered in the

 

exact way the application will send it. For example, if you enter 555-1212 in

 

this table and the application sends 5551212, the IOLAN will not match the

 

two numbers.

Host IP Address

Specify the IP address of the IOLAN that is receiving the virtual modem

 

connection.

TCP Port

Specify the TCP Port on the IOLAN that is set to receive the virtual modem

 

connection.

 

Default: 0

Control Signal I/O Profile

Overview

The Control Signal I/O profile is only available on IOLAN I/O models. When you configure a serial port for Control Signal I/O, you are using the DSR, DCD, CTS, DTR, and RTS serial pins for I/O channel Digital Input (DSR, DCD, and CTS) or Digital Output (DTR and RTS).

Functionality

The Control Signal I/O profile enables the use of the EIA-232 serial port pins to be used as assigned Digital Inputs or Digital Outputs.
