Data Communication and Host Modes

Tip: It is best to ensure the idle time-outs for TCP and UDP are never 0 if you're going to be using auto-answer, or either PAD mode. In those circumstances, you will want the modem to close the socket if the connection goes idle for too long, particularly if the other side doesn’t normally close the connection.

When the session is initiated by serial data, the new session will be established using the destination address specified in S53. The S53 setting can be changed if the connect to last UDP setting (*UDPLAST=1) is set. The address in S53 will be updated to reflect the address of the last session initiated by an incoming UDP packet. So that when new data is received over the host serial port while in the idle state, a session will be re‐ established with the last address. (This behavior is the same as the previous Hybrid2 (MD6) mode).

Tip: TCP auto answer (S0) may also be set simultaneously with UDP auto answer. Then, when in the idle state, the modem will accept either a TCP or UDP incoming packet, and enter a TCP or UDP session as appropriate.

Reliable UDP

Reliable UDP adds a simple protocol on top of UDP to provide reliable delivery of data. When data is received from the host serial port, a 2 byte header is added to the data, containing a message type and a sequence number. The PinPoint X will continue to send this data (buffering any received data in the meantime) until it receives an acknowledgement with this sequence number. If an acknowledgement is not received within the time‐out period (specified in S7), the data will be retransmitted. This will continue until an acknowledgement is received or the modem is reset. Likewise any UDP packets received by the PinPoint X are expected to have this simple header. The PinPoint X will issue an acknowledgement for any valid packets which are received.

To configure the PinPoint X for a normal UDP session, you need to set the Startup Mode Default to 73 (ATMD73). If you are using two modems, configure the Destination IP and Port in each to point to each other. Serial data will then be sent reliably between the two.

Caution: Although it adds reliability, the simple implementation of the

Reliable UDP mode in the does not check for duplicate packets.
