In Virtual COM mode, the driver establishes a transparent connection between the host and
the serial device by mapping the port of the serial server to a local COM port on the host
computer. Virtual COM mode also supports up to 5 simultaneous connections, so that multiple
hosts can send or receive data by the same serial device at the same time.

TCP Server Mode
In TCP Server mode, IMG is configured with a unique port combination on a TCP/IP network.
In this case, IMG waits passively to be contacted by the device. After the device establishes a
connection with the serial device, it can then proceed with data transmission. The TCP Server
mode also supports up to 5 simultaneous connections, so that multiple device can receive data
from the same serial device at the same time.
