IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 Web Console Configuration
5-24
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.
Force transmit
Setting Factory Default Necessity
0 to 65535 ms 0 ms Optional
0: Disable the force transmit timeout.
1 to 65535: Forces the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485’s TCP/IP protocol software to try to pack serial data received
during the specified time into the same data frame.
This parameter defines the time interval during which the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 fetches the serial data
from its internal buffer. If data is incoming through the serial port, the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 stores the
data in the internal buffer. The IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 transmits data stored in the buffer via TCP/IP, but
only if the internal buffer is full or if the Force transmit time interval reaches the time specified under Force
transmit timeout.
The optimal Force transmit timeout depends on your application, but it must be at least larger than one
character interval within the specified baudrate. For example, assume that the serial port is set to 1200 bps, 8
data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. In this case, the total number of bits needed to send a character is 10 bits,
and the time required to transfer one character is
(10 (bits) / 1200 (bits/s)) * 1000 (ms/s) = 8.3 ms.
Therefore, you should set Force transmit timeout to a value larger than 8.3 ms, so in this case, it must be
greater than or equal to 10 ms.
If the user wants to send a series of characters in the same packet, the serial device attached to the
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 should send that series of characters during a time interval less than the Force
transmit timeout for the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485, and the total length of data must be less than or equal to
the IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485’s internal buffer size. The serial communication buffer size for the
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 is 1 KB per port.

The UDP port that IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485 listens to, and that other devices must use to contact
IE-CS(T)-2TX-xRS232/485. To avoid conflicts with well known UDP ports, the default is set to 4001.
