NPort 5100 Series Web Console Configuration
Packing length
Setting Factory Default Necessity
0 to 1024 0 Optional
Default = 0, The Delimiter Process will be followed, regardless of the length of the data packet. If the data
length (in bytes) matches the configured value, the data will be forced out. The data length can be configured
for 0 to 1024 bytes. Set to 0 if you do not need to limit the length.
Delimiter 1
Setting Factory Default Necessity
00 to FF None Optional
Delimiter 2
Setting Factory Default Necessity
00 to FF None Optional
Once the NPort 5100 receives both delimiters through its serial port, it immediately packs all data currently in
its buffer and sends it out the NPort 5100’s Ethernet port.
ATTENTION
Delimiter 2 is optional. If left blank, then Delimiter
1 alone trips clearing of the buffer.
If the size of the serial
data received is greater than 1 KB, the NPort
5100 will automatically pack the data and send it to the Ethernet.
However, to use the delimiter function, you must at least enable Delimiter 1. I
f Delimiter 1 is left blank and
Delimiter 2 is enabled, the delimiter function will not work properly.
Delimiter process
Setting Factory Default Necessity
Do nothing,
1, Delimiter + 2
Strip Delimiter
Do Nothing Optional
[Delimiter + 1] or [Delimiter + 2]: The data will be transmitted when an additional byte (for Delimiter +1), or
an additional 2 bytes (for Delimiter +2) of data is received after receiving the Delimiter.
[Strip Delimiter]: When the Delimiter is received, the Delimiter is deleted (i.e., stripped), and the remaining
data is transmitted.
[Do nothing]: The data will be transmitted when the Delimiter is received.
Force transmit
Setting Factory Default Necessity
0 to 65535 ms 0 ms Optional
0: Disable the force transmit timeout.
1 to 65535: Forces the NPort 5100’s TCP/IP protocol software to try to pack serial data received during the
specified time into the same data frame.
This parameter defines the time interval during which NPort 5100 fetches the serial data from its internal buffer.
If data is incoming through the serial port, NPort 5100 stores the data in the internal buffer. NPort 5100
transmits data stored in the buffer via TCP/IP, but only if the internal buffer is full or if the Force transmit time
interval reaches the time specified under Force transmit timeout.
The optimal Force transmit timeout depends on your application, but it must be at least larger than one
character interval within the specified baudrate. For example, assume that the serial port is set to 1200 bps, 8
data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. In this case, the total number of bits needed to send a character is 10 bits,
and the time required to transfer one character is
(10 (bits) / 1200 (bits/s)) * 1000 (ms/s) = 8.3 ms.
