rmpbind
4
This is the standard binding for the passthrough protocol (see
page 4-34), but can also be used for the i/o control socket setting
(see “I/O Control” on page 4-32).
Parameter
Description
■
protocol
This example uses the RMP protocol, so the value
of this entry is “rmp”. RMP binding options are
described below. If you wish to use the TCP/IP
protocol, skip to the next example.
■
source address
This is the value that this WaveLAN/EC-S will use to
identify its serial port when sending serial data to
and receiving serial data from other WaveLAN/EC-S
units (in short, this is its “port address”). The default
value is “default” which will cause the WaveLAN/
EC-S to use its serial number as the address.
■
source address
filter
Setting this value will tell the WaveLAN/EC-S to only
accept data coming from the address specified. For
example, if this entry is set to “1234”, only data
originating from a WaveLAN/EC-S with the port
address of 1234 will be accepted; all other data will
be ignored. The default value is “none”.
■
destination
address
This value tells the WaveLAN/EC-S what port
address to send data received on the serial port to.
It can be the serial port address of another
WaveLAN/EC-S device, or the “broadcast” or
“dynamic” address. Broadcast means to send the
data to all WaveLAN/EC-S units. Dynamic means to
send the data to the WaveLAN/EC-S it last received
data from. Dynamic has the effect of causing two
WaveLAN/EC-S units that are by themselves to
communicate to each other. The default value is
“dynamic”.
