the serial port. NEW 2.18

NOTE: Serial ports do not offer hardware or software flow control.

NOTE: For parameter changes to take effect, a board soft reset should be performed, by issuing Save

Parameters (0x25) and Reset (0x01) (Reset Type = 2, soft reset) messages.

KLV Pass-through receives formatted KLV metadata via serial port generated by an external processor.

This KLV metadata is injected into the MPEG2-TS stream along with compressed digital video. When

using this mode, internally-generated KLV metadata should be disabled via Set Metadata Rate (0x62).

Example:

Tell the SLA-HARDWARE to send data received on local port 1000 out on to serial port 2 configured

at 57600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. Any data received from serial port 2 will be sent to

the IP address of 192.168.1.119 on port 10000. Raw payload data can now be sent directly to the IP

address of the SLA-HARDWARE on port 1234 or data can be sent through the SLA Protocol port

(serial port 0 or Ethernet port 14001) using Command Pass-through (0x3D).
