218 Chapter 2 Command Descriptions
sid={on|off}
Determines how the socket ID (SID) string in the “sidstring” option is
handled; that is, whether the string specified by the “sidstring” option is
sent at the beginning of each UDP packet.
on
The value of “sidstring” is sent at the beginning of each UDP packet.
off
The value of “sidstring” is not sent at the beginning of each UDP
packet.
The default is “off.”
sidstring=string
The string sent at the beginning of each UDP packet if the “sid” option is
set to on. The maximum length of this string is 256 characters, including
escape sequences for special characters. For more details on the escape
sequences, see "Entering Special Characters in String Values" on page
13. The maximum parsed length of this string is 256 characters. That is,
this string must reduce down to a 256-character string when the escape
sequences are processed.
clostime=time
The amount of idle time before closing the serial port, in milliseconds. If
no data is sent or received on the serial port for the specified amount of
time, the serial port is closed. This allows the serial port to be used by
other things such as TCP socket or RealPort. If a value of 0 milliseconds
is set, the “closetime” option will internally be recalculated to be 1
millisecond or twice the send time, whichever is greater. The default is 0
milliseconds.

The following options require a specific range to be specified by the “range”
option.
port=range
Specifies the serial port. Optional on a single-port device.
range={1-64}
Specifies the UDP destination to be configured.
description=string
A string for descriptive purposes only.
active={on|off}
Specifies whether data from the serial port is sent to this destination.
on
Data from the serial port is sent to this destination.
off
This destination is not sent any data.
The default is “off.”
ipaddress=ip address
The IP address of the network destination to which data is sent.
