4.5.3.4 Multi-host Connection (Continued)
Connection Type –
The options are
Disable, Simultaneous,
and
Sequential
. The
iServer can send the received serial data to multiple network hosts Simultaneously
or Sequentially.
In
Simultaneous
mode, the received serial data will be transmitted to all the network
nodes that are indicated in the host table (using TCP or UDP protocol depending on
which protocol is selected under the NETWORK page).
In
Sequential
mode, the iServer scrolls through the IP addresses in the host table
until it connects to one. After a successful connection, the iServer stops trying to
connect to any others. If this connection fails, the iServer continues to scroll through
the table until the next successful connection takes place.
Each entry in the host table should contain an IP address and a port number. The
default is
Disable
.
Retry Counter –
This indicates the number of tries to connect to the host address.
The default is
2
.
Retry Timeout –
This indicates the amount of time (msec) between each try. The
default is
200
msec.
