USER MANUAL
TCP Client & Server Mode
The TCP client/server mode is used to bridge two PULSE radio networks together. This allows
serial devices from different PULSE networks to talk to each other via an Ethernet network. A semi-
persistent TCP connection is established between two client/server radios that provides an efficient
mechanism for transferring large quantities of data.
The following diagram shows a typical context in which two iPULSE radios configured in TCP
Client/Server mode are used.
In this scenario, either of the TCP Client/Server radios can establish a connection to the other radio
when data is received from their respective PULSE radio networks. When a connection is
established, any data received by either of the iPULSE radios is passed on to the other radio. A
serial device from either PULSE network can communicate with a serial device from the other
PULSE network. As well, applications running on a computer that is connected to the Ethernet
network can access all of the serial devices in the two PULSE networks.
