Enter the remote port number of tunneling target. Connection method Select connection method to the target. LNX-002e and an attached serial device must agree on the baud rate to use for the serial connection. Valid baud rates are 300, 600, Baudrate 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200, 230400, 460800 or 921600.

You can use the software that creates Virtual COM ports on your PC. You can use the COM port to communicate to an IP address of LNX-002e. Rather than going out the local port, the data is transmitted across the Ethernet network using TCP/IP. LNX-002e attached to the network receives the data and transfers it from its own serial port to the attached equipment.
