DART 200 CDPD Modem User’s Guide | 5 DART Supported Protocols |
Host TCP setup
The host (client) modem is set up to support polling of remote devices by the host computer. The host uses flow control and the data being sent is binary, not character data. The polling function does not require the TCP server, but requires flow control, and timed data forwarding because of the binary data.
Use this setup only for bench testing or a limited use trial. A production application uses a leased line, frame relay, or Internet connection between the host and the MDIS instead of a modem. In the latter scenario, the production host application needs to include a software stack (replacing the modem stack) to operate with the CDPD network.
