This field indicates the destination host that will answer the XOT, TCP, SSL, UDP call if a
connection via the primary interface has failed and the PAD is configured to backup to a
secondary interface that is using an IP based protocol.
IP Stream port
This is the TCP or UDP port number to use for IP (but not XoT) connections.
IP length header
When set to “On”, and in IP Stream mode, the length of a data sequence is inserted before
the data. For the receive direction it is assumed the length of the data is in the data stream.
When set to “8583 Ascii 4 byte”, the IP length header will conform to the ISO 8583 format.
PAD Settings
PAD prompt
This parameter allows you to redefine the standard “PAD>” prompt. To change the prompt
enter a new string of up to 15 characters into the text box.
PAD mode
The PAD Mode parameter can be set to “Normal” or “Prompt Always On”. In Prompt Always
On mode, the ASY port attached to the PAD behaves as if it were permanently connected at
layer 2, i.e. it always displays a “PAD>” prompt. AT commands may still be entered but the
normal result codes are suppressed. To disable this mode set the parameter to “Normal”.
Use PAD Profile
The PAD profile # allows you to select the PAD profile to use for this PAD instance. There
are four pre-defined profiles numbered “50”, “51”, “90” and “91”. In addition to the pre-
defined profiles you can also create up to four user-defined profiles numbered “1”, “2”, “3”
and “4”. To assign a particular profile to the PAD select the appropriate number from the
list.
Strip Trailing Spaces
When this parameter is turned on any spaces received at the end of a sequence of data
from the network will be removed before being relayed to the PAD port.
Enable Leased Line Mode
When this parameter is set to “On”, it causes the PAD to always attempt to be connected
using the Auto macro setting as the call command.
Send ENQ on Connect
When this parameter is set to “On” the PAD will send an ENQ character on the ASY link
when an outgoing call has been answered.
Enable STX / ETX Filtering
When this parameter is “On”, the PAD will ignore data that is not encapsulated between
ASCII characters STX (Ctrl+B) and ETX (Ctrl+C). To disable this feature select the “Off”
option.
Delay connect message n x 10 milliseconds
Delay the Connect message by the number of milliseconds specified. (Useful when working
with equipment that previously connected to slower networks and is upset by the quicker
“Connect” when used with modern networks.)
Delay data transfer after connection by n x 10 milliseconds
Delays the data delivered from the X.25 or other type of connection to the terminal upon
initial connection.
Terminate the PAD call after x seconds if there has been no data transmission
