o RS-232: The RS-232 mode provides a wireless serial connection between any two serial
devices connected to StreamCaster radios on the network. In this mode, the user must
configure the RS-232 protocol parameters shown in Figure 28 above. The transport
protocol for the serial data can be set as either TCP or UDP. For data that is sensitive to
latency such as command and control data, UDP is recommended. For data that cannot
tolerate any data loss, such as telemetry data, TCP is recommended.
▪ The Peer IP should be the IP address of the radio on the other end of the RS-232
communication.
▪ The Peer IP can be the native or virtual IP address, but must be consistent at both
ends.
▪ Baud rate must match the baud rate of data being sent from the device.
▪ Note – An additional ‘null modem’ cable may be needed at either end, depending
upon whether connected device is acting as a terminal or as a control (DTE or
DCE)
o Debug: The debug mode is used to gain terminal access to the StreamCaster radio and is
available for debug or interface purposes (API commands). The user’s terminal client
should be set to a baud rate of 115200 for console access to the radio.
o Disabled: This mode completely disables the serial terminal of the radio.
• Apply: Apply the new values but does not save them to flash.
• Save and Apply: Save the new values to flash and apply.
USB Status (3822/4200/4400):
The USB port on the 3822/4200/4400 can auto-detect whether the connected device is a USB
host or client device. The USB cable should not be unplugged while the radio is running.
