To Remove A Configured Port; Configure The Remote Serial Device Connection - Tripp Lite B092-016 Owner's Manual

Chapter 4: Serial Port, Device and User Configuration
• Check Receive DSR/DCD/CTS changes if the flow control signal status from the physical serial port on Console Server is to
be reflected back to the Windows COM port driver (as some serial communications applications prefer to run without any
hardware flow control i.e. in "two wire" mode)
• The Propagate local port changes allows complete serial device control by the Windows application so it operates exactly
like a directly connected serial COM port. It provides a complete COM port interface between the attached serial device
and the network, providing hardware and software flow control. So the baud rate etc of the remote serial port is controlled
by the settings for that COM port on Windows computer. If not selected then the port serial configuration parameters are
set on the Console Server.
• With the Emulate Baud Rate selected VirtualPort will only send data out at the baud rate configured by the local
Application using the COM port
4.7.3

To remove a configured port

At any stage you can delete a single configured COM port, or delete the Console Server connection (and all the COM ports
configured on that Console Server)
• Select the console server or COM port on the left hand menu and click the Remove button
4.7.4

Configure the remote serial device connection

Ensure the remote serial device is connected to your remote Console Server. Then configure the serial port as detailed in the
User Guide
• Set the RS232 Common Settings (e.g. baud rate)
• Select Console server mode and specify the appropriate protocol to be used:
o RAW TCP allows connections directly to a TCP socket and the default TCP port address is 4000 + serial port #
(i.e. the address of the second serial port is IP Address _ 4002)
o RFC2217 enables serial port redirection on that port and the default port address is IP Address _ Port (5000 +
serial port #) i.e. 5001 – 5048 on a 48 port Console Server
o VirtualPort Secure mode enables encrypted communication (This feature will be available mid 2010)
