Proxima ASA 7911, 7910 manual

The IP Address Filter parameter allows you filter out packets received by the Serial Adapter from any IP Address other than one specified IP Address. You may specify only one IP Ad- dress from which to accept messages. The default for this parameter is to receive packets from any IP Address.

The configuration menu allows you to apply Packet Type Filters to limit the type of messages the unit receives. You may chose to filter either Point-to-Point or Broadcast messages. By default, the Serial Adapter will accept all packet types.

The Escape Parameters option allows you to customize when the configuration menu will appear by changing the Escape-to- Menu Character from “$” and by changing the Escape-to- Menu Delay settings to an interval of 0.1 of a second. Note that when entering a value for the Escape-to-Menu parameter, a value of 1 corresponds to a delay of 0.1 second. Likewise, a value 10 corresponds to a 1 second delay.

The Escape-to-Menu Delay parameter sets the length of time which must elapse, with no additional keystrokes, both before and after the three identical Escape-to-Menu Characters are sent to the Serial Adapter. By default, the configuration menu appears when “$$$” is sent to the Serial Adapter and the unit has not received any characters for 1 second before or after the receipt of “$$$”.

The Notify Remote Nodes of Pin Status Change parameter is only relevant when the Serial Adapter is in Packetized mode. When enabled, the Serial Adapter will pass changes in the status of the RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, RI, and CD pins to the remote side of the connection. This information is not visible to the user.

The Lost Communication parameter allows you to set the behavior of the Serial Adapter when it is in Pass-through mode
