4.5.2.3 What happen when enabling virtual COM as TCP client on GW21W-MAXI

Similarly you can enable virtual COM as TCP client on GW21W-MAXI as explained in 4.5.2.1.

However, since Atop virtual COM only supports TCP client running on the monitoring PC which

means virtual COM port can’t be established between GW21W-MAXI and the monitoring PC. The

benefit of enabling virtual COM as TCP client on GW21W-MAXI at this point is not only sending data

but sending hardware handshaking information as well to GW21W-MAXI which is enabled as virtual

COM TCP server.
