CHAPTER 5: Configuration

• Inactivity Timeout: Enables and selects the Timeout Period for this port. If

enabled, the port will disconnect when no additional data activity is detected

for the duration of the timeout period. When the port is set for Any-to-Any

Mode, Passive Mode, or Buffer Mode, the default setting is “Off.” When set for

Modem Mode, the default setting is 5 minutes.

Notes:

• The Inactivity Timeout value is also applied to Direct Connections.

• The Inactivity Timeout is also applied to non-connected ports

that are left in command mode. If the timeout is enabled, and

no additional activity is detected, an unconnected port will exit

command mode when the Timeout Disconnect expires.

• Command Echo: Enables or Disables command echo at this port.

(Default = On.)

• Accept Break: Determines whether the port will accept breaks received from

the attached device, and pass them along to a connected port. When enabled,

breaks received at this port will be passed to any port this port is connected to.

When disabled, breaks will be refused at this port. (Default = On.)

Port Mode Parameters:

• Port Mode: The operation mode for this port. Ports 1 and 2 cannot be

conﬁgured as Passive or Buffer Mode ports, and the internal modem port is

always conﬁgured for Modem Mode. (Port 1 and 2, Default = Any-to-Any

Mode; Serial Ports 3 and above, Default = Passive Mode; Internal Modem Port,

Default = Modem Mode.)
