Force Transmit
Setting
0 to 65535
TCP Client Mode
In TCP Client mode, the AWK-1137C actively
establishes a TCP connection to a specific
network host when data is received from the
attached serial device. After the data has been
transferred, the AWK-1137C can automatically
disconnect from the host computer through the
Inactivity time settings.
Data transmission proceeds as follows:
1. The AWK-1137C requests a connection from
the host.
2. The connection is established and data can
be transmitted in both directions between
the host and device.
Description
This field controls data packing by the amount of time that
elapses between bits of data. When using this field, make sure
that Inactivity time is disabled or set to a larger value.
Otherwise the connection may be closed before the data in the
buffer can be transmitted.
0: If serial data is received, setting this value to 0 means no
data will be buffered and all data will be transmitted
immediately as received.
1 to 65535: If serial data is not received for the specified
amount of time, the data that is currently in the buffer will be
packed for network transmission. The optimal force transmit
time depends on your application, but it must be at least larger
than one character interval within the specified baudrate. For
example, assume that the serial port is set to 1200 bps, 8 data
bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. In this case, the total number of
bits needed to send a character is 10 bits, and the time required
to transfer one character is 8.3 ms, so the force transmit time
to be larger than 8.3 ms.
