Chapter 2 Command Descriptions 129
sidstring=string
The string sent at the beginning of each UDP packet if the “sid” option is
set to on. The maximum length of this string is 256 characters, including
escape sequences for special characters. For more details on the escape
sequences, see "Entering Special Characters in String Values" on page
10. The maximum parsed length of this string is 256 characters. That is,
this string must reduce down to a 256-character string when the escape
sequences are processed.
clostime=time
The amount of idle time before closing the serial port. If no data is sent or
received on the serial port for the specified amount of time, the serial port
is closed. This allows the serial port to be used by other things such as
TCP socket or RealPort. If a value of 0 is set, the “closetime” option will
internally be recalculated to be 1 second or twice the send time,
whichever is greater. The default is 0.
