Using the Redirector :: Advanced Options

Maximum Connection Recovery Interval

This option controls the maximum time between the redirector's attempts to reconnect to the server if Restore Failed Connection is enabled for a virtual COM port.

To change the setting

In the Serial/IP Control Panel:

1. Click Advanced.

2. Select the Options tab.

3. Type a value for Maximum Connection Recovery Interval. The default is 30,000 milliseconds (30 seconds). It is recommended that this setting be at least 1,000 milliseconds.

4. Click OK to record the setting.

This setting affects all Serial/IP COM ports that are subsequently opened.

Tips

If the Serial/IP Redirector discovers that its connection to the server has failed, it will begin attempting to restore the failed connection if the option Restore Failed Connection has been set for the virtual COM port.

If an application needs faster reconnection attempts, set this option to a shorter interval.

 Notes

This is a global setting that affects all Serial/IP COM ports.

Changes become effective for subsequently opened virtual COM ports. Currently open ports are unaffected.
