Finish the Port Settings

Some applications, in combination with some types of servers, may require the use of specialized per-port options provided by the redirector.

In nearly all cases, the setting determined by the Configuration Wizard is correct and this setting should not be changed.

NOTE: If the server supports the COM Port Control protocol, these settings are unnecessary.

With the Serial/IP Control Panel open and the virtual COM port selected:

If the redirector needs to emulate the DSR, DCD, and/or CTS signals, select the corresponding check box and select the desired emulation method from the corresponding drop-down list. details

The redirector can attempt to restore its network connection to the server if the connection fails. To enable this feature on this virtual COM port:

Select the check box Restore Failed Connections. details
Review the related advanced options Keep-Alive Interval and Max Connection Recovery Interval.

To configure the remaining virtual COM ports created earlier, see Configuring Additional Ports.

When all virtual COM ports are configured, proceed to Configuring Advanced Options.

When you change the settings for a virtual COM port, they are recorded immediately and are used the next time the port is opened.
