Tunnel - Packing Mode
Settings
Description
Mode Select Disable to disable Packing Mode completely.
Select Timeout to send data after the specified time has
elapsed.
Select Send Character to send the queued data when the send
character is received.
Threshold
(Appears for both Timeout
and Send Character
Modes)
Send the queued data when the number of queued bytes reaches
the threshold. When the buffer fills to this specified amount of data
in bytes (and the timeout has not elapsed), the device packs the
data and sends it out; applies only if the Packing Mode is not
Disabled.
Timeout
(Appears for Timeout
Mode)
Enter a time, in milliseconds, for the device to send the queued
data after the first character was received. Specifies the time
duration in milliseconds; applies only if the Packing Mode is
Timeout.
Send Character
(Appears for Send
Character Mode)
Enter the send character (single printable or control). Upon
receiving this character, the device sends out the queued data.
The data is packed until the specified send character is
encountered. Similar to a start or stop character, the device packs
the data until it sees the send character. The device then sends the
packed data and the send character in the packet. Applies only if
the Packing Mode is Send Character.
Trailing Character
(Appears for Send
Character Mode)
Enter the trailing character (single printable or control). This
character is sent immediately following the send character. This is
an optional setting. If a trailing character is defined, this character is
appended to data put on the network immediately following the
send character.
