client-initiated
When this option is turned on, the IOLAN will wait for a connection from the TruePort
host (see the TruePort documentation for information on how to set up this feature on
the TruePort host). When this option is turned off, the IOLAN will initiate the
connection to the TruePort host. The default is off.
signal-active
This option has the following impact based on the state of the TruePort connection:
z TruePort Lite Mode—When enabled, the EIA-232 signals remain active before,
during, and after the TruePort connection is established. When disabled, the
EIA-232 signals remain inactive when there is no TruePort connection and active
when there is a TruePort connection.
z TruePort Full Mode—When enabled, the EIA-232 signals remain active before
and after the TruePort connection and the TruePort client will control the state of
the signals during the established TruePort connection. When disabled, the
EIA-232 signals remain inactive before and after the TruePort connection and the
TruePort client will control the state of the signals during the established TruePort
connection.
Default: Enabled
multihost

services, allows multiple hosts to connect to the serial device.
multihost all|backup <config_backup_host> <tcp_port>|none
Used for connections going from the serial port to the network for TruePort or Silent
Raw services, allows the serial device to communicate to either all the hosts in the
multihost list or a primary/backup host schema (see Configuring Multiple Hosts in the
IOLAN User’s Guide for a more detailed explanation).
