Description
Operation Mode
COM Redirector
Set the operation protocol.
COM Redirector
Enables a PC in a Windows environment to use communication
over Ethernet through a virtual COM Port(VCP).
TCP Server
eCAN acts as a TCP Server and waits for connection from Clients
on the network. The socket number waiting for a connection is set
at [Local Port] and data can be sent and received when the socket
connection is complete.
TCP Client
When a particular server on the network waits for a connection,
eCAN acts as a client of socket and attempts to connect with the
IP address and socket number of the Server which is set. Data
can be sent and received when the socket connection is
complete. The IP and port number of the Server to request access
to are set at [Target IP/Target Port].
UDP Server
The eCAN acts as a UDP server and waits for UDP connections
from the client on the network.
The socket number to open is set in [Local Port].
UDP Client
The IP and port number of the other party you want to
communicate with is set in [Target IP/Target Port].
We recommend using Static IP rather than DHCP for COM
Redirector, TCP Server, UDP Server.
Local Port
4001
Specify the number assigned to the port. Use this port to wait for
network connection in TCP Server and UDP mode.
Target IP

Specify the IP address of the destination to connect to in TCP
Client mode.

TCP Alive Check Time
60
After TCP socket connection is complete, it checks the network
status at the set number of seconds to terminate or reset the
socket connection if a network abnormality is determined.
This feature is not used when set to 0.
Keep Alive is applied when used as TCP Server, Client.
