Packing Interval
Packing Interval defines how long the unit should wait before sending accumulated
characters. This wait period is between successive network segments containing
data. For alternate packing, the default interval is 12 ms.
Trailing Characters
In some applications, CRC, Checksum, or other trailing characters follow the end-of-
sequence character; this option helps to adapt frame transmission to the frame
boundary. The default setting is 00 (none).
Send Characters
If 2-Byte Send Character Sequence is enabled, the unit interprets the
sendchars as a 2-byte sequence; if this option is not enabled, the unit
interprets them independently. The default setting is 0 (disabled).
If Send Immediately After Characters is not set, any characters already in
the serial buffer are included in the transmission after a "transmit" condition is
found. If this option is set, the unit sends immediately after recognizing the
transmit condition (sendchar or timeout). The default setting is 0.
Note: A transmission might occur if status information needs to be
exchanged or an acknowledgment needs to be sent.
DisConnTime (Inactivity Timeout)
Use this parameter to set an inactivity timeout. The unit drops the connection if there
is no activity on the serial line before the set time expires. Enter time in the format
mm:ss, where m is the number of minutes and s is the number of seconds.
DisConnTime (00:00) ?:
To disable the inactivity timeout, enter 00:00. Range is 0 (disabled) to 5999 seconds
(99 minutes, 59 seconds). Default setting is 0.
Send Characters
Enter up to two characters in hexadecimal representation in sendchar.
SendChar 1 (00) ? _
SendChar 2 (00) ? _
If the unit receives a character on the serial line that matches one of these
characters, it sends the character immediately, along with any awaiting characters, to
the TCP connection. This action minimizes the response time for specific protocol
characters on the serial line (for example, ETX, EOT). Setting the first sendchar to 00
