7.2 Link Mode Applications

7.2.1 TCP Server Application: Enable Virtual COM

SE5416A Series will encapsulate control packets on top of the real data when Virtual COM is

enabled. This will allow the Virtual COM port in the Windows/Linux system to access SE5416A

Series’ COM ports. The benefit of using Virtual COM is that rewriting an existing COM program

to read IP packets is unnecessary. In other words, it is possible to use an ordinary serial (COM)

program. The conversion/virtualization of IP to COM is all done in the system driver

transparently. Figure 7.7 shows SE5416A Series in TCP Server mode with Virtual COM

enabled.
