Chapter 2 Command Descriptions 179
• Internal Modem (or Embedded Modem) profile: Configures the internal
modem of this device. The Internal Modem Profile is used for serial
ports that contain an internal modem to configure both the serial port
and the modem.
• Chat profile: Allows multiple clients to simultaneously connect and
manage a server connected to a serial port. Use this profile if multiple
clients need to share a single server/slave resource. This profile acts
similar to a typical chat room, where each client is able to send a
message to the server and all other clients are able to view the
message as well as the server's response. This is useful when multiple
clients or systems need to cooperatively control a device or when an
external system wants to monitor and log all client data accessing the
serial device.
