NPort S8000 Series Basic Settings and Device Server Configuration
5-19
ATTENTION
Inactivity time is ONLY active when
“TCP connect on” is set to “Any character.”
Ignore jammed IP
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Enable or Disable Disable Optional
Previously, if “max connection” was greater than 1, the serial device was transmitting data, and a connected
host was not responding, the NPort would wait until the data was transmitted successfully before transmitting
the second group of data to all hosts. Currently, if you select Enable for “Ignore jammed IP,” the host that is not
responding will be ignored, but the data will still be transmitted to the other hosts.
Data Packing
Packet length
Setting Factory Default Necessity
0 to 1024 0 Optional
Default = 0, The Delimiter Process will be followed, regardless of the length of the data packet. If the data
length (in bytes) matches the configured value, the data will be forced out. The data length can be configured
for 0 to 1024 bytes. Set to 0 if you do not need to limit the length.
Delimiter 1
Setting Factory Default Necessity
00 to FF None Optional
Delimiter 2
Setting Factory Default Necessity
00 to FF None Optional
When Delimiter 1 is enabled, the serial port will clear the buffer and send the data to the Ethernet port when
a specific character, entered in hex format, is received. A second delimiter character may be enabled and
specified in the Delimiter 2 field, so that both characters act as the delimiter to indicate when data should be
sent.
ATTENTION
Delimiter 2 is optional. If left blank, then Delimiter 1 alone trips clearing of the buffer.
If the size of the serial
data received is greater than 1 KB, the NPort will automatically pack the
data and send it to the Ethernet.
However, to use the delimiter function, you must at least enable Delimiter 1. If Delimiter 1 is left blank and
Delimiter 2 is enabled, the delimiter function will not work properly.
Delimiter process
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Do nothing
Delimiter + 1
Delimiter + 2
Strip Delimiter
Do Nothing Optional
[Delimiter + 1] or [Delimiter + 2]: The data will be transmitted when an additional byte (for Delimiter +1), or
an additional 2 bytes (for Delimiter +2) of data is received after receiving the Delimiter.
[Strip Delimiter]: When the Delimiter is received, the Delimiter is deleted (i.e., stripped), and the remaining
data is transmitted.
[Do nothing]: The data will be transmitted when the Delimiter is received.
