    OnCell G3100 Series Introducing Serial Port Operation Modes TCP Client and Secure TCP Client Modes In TCP Client mode, the OnCell G3100 can actively establish a TCP connection to a pre-defined host computer when serial data arrives. After the data has been transferred, the OnCell G3100 can automatically disconnect from the host computer by using the Inactivity time settings.

  • Page 37: Udp Mode

    OnCell G3100 Series Introducing Serial Port Operation Modes UDP Mode Compared to TCP communication, UDP is faster and more efficient. In UDP mode, you can unicast to one host or multicast to multiple hosts and the serial device can receive data from one or multiple host computers. These traits make UDP mode especially well-suited for message display applications.
