  Note: Depending upon your product type, this dialog may vary. This help context covers all possible configuration parameters. If your dialog does not contain certain parameters, they don't apply to the product you are configuring.

Data Bits

Idle Timer

Parity

Slip Default Gateway

Slip IP Address

Slip Network Mask

Slip Transmit/Receive RIP Packets

Speed

Stop Bits

T7 IP Address

T7 Rx Forwarding Count

T7 Tx Frame Gap

T7 UDP Port

Usage

Usage

  This area is where you define the type of communication the port will support.
  Range: Any option that is not gray

Speed

  This value defines the speed at which the port operates.
  Range: Any speed available in the list (dependent upon the attached devices)

Parity

  This is the parity used for the T7 connection to the DAP
  Range: None, Odd, or Even

Data Bits

  This is the number of data bits used for the T7 connection to the DAP.
  Range: 5 -- 8 data bits

Stop Bits

  This is the number of transmit stop bits used for the T7 connection to the DAP.
  Range: 1, 1.5, or 2 bits

Idle Timer

  This parameter sets the idle timer used for the T7 connection to the DAP. This timer determines how long the unit waits to receive characters belonging to each frame. The timer starts when the unit receives a character. One frame contains all characters received until the idle time between each character exceeds the configured value.
  To disable the timer, set this parameter to zero.
  Range: 0 --5000 milliseconds

T7 IP Address

  This address identifies the CMS management station. This is the device to which the unit forwards T7 data received from the DAP.
  Range: 4 numbers (0--255) separated by three periods

T7 UDP Port

  Leave this parameter set to its default value. No other value is currently valid.
  Range: -

T7 Tx Frame Gap

  This value defines the transmit frame gap used for the T7 connection to the DAP. This value guarantees a minimum time between transmitted frames, enabling the T7 device to distinguish between frames.
  To disable this feature, set the value to zero.
  Range: 0 -- 5000 milliseconds

T7 Rx Forwarding Count

  This value defines the number of characters the unit receives before forming them into a frame and forwarding them across the network.
  Range: 1 -- 1024 characters

Slip IP Address

  This address identifies the SLIP interface.
  Range: 4 numbers (0-255) separated by three periods

Slip Network Mask

  This value defines the number of bits used for the subnet address
  Range: 4 numbers (0--255) separated by three periods\

Slip Default Gateway

  This parameter defines an IP default gateway address.
  Range: 4 numbers (0--255) separated by three periods

Slip Transmit/Receive RIP Packets

  This parameter defines whether RIP packets should be sent on this interface
  Range: Neither, Both, Transmit, or Receive
