¥ StatusEnable/Disable the serial data port.
¥ ModeTCP Server. This is the type of IP port offered by the
transceivers serial device server.
[
TCP, UDP; TCP]
¥ RX IP PortReceive IP data from this source and pass it
through to the connected serial device. The application con-
necting to the local TCP or UDP socket must use this port
number.
[
Any valid IP port; 30010]
¥ Baud RateData rate (payload) for the COM port, in
bits-per-second. [
1,200—115,200; 19200]
¥ Byte FormatInterface signaling parameters. Data bits, parity
and stop bits.

depends on the type of device you are communicating with at the other
end of the IP network. In this example, we will use TCP to illustrate its
use.
