Using the DialOut/EZ Redirector
In the DialOut/EZ Control Panel:
- Choose the COM port numbers for virtual COM ports
- Configure each virtual COM port to a modem pool IP address and TCP port number
- Use Auto Configure to verify modem pool connectivity and get appropriate port settings
In your application:
- Open any virtual COM port to reserve and access a modem in the modem pool
- Read/write serial data, as with a local modem
- Close the virtual COM port to release the modem back to the modem pool
For more, see the DialOut/EZ Quick Start Guide.
Is the 30-day trial software a full version of DialOut/EZ?
Yes, for up to 256 active ports. Download and run the DialOut/EZ installer, leaving the license key blank to begin the trial period.
Can I extend my trial period past 30 days?
Yes, contact us.
Can I move the site license to a different server?
Yes, contact our tech support team.
Can I create more virtual serial ports than I use at one time?
Yes, you can create and configure up to 4,096 virtual ports. Your DialOut/EZ license key controls only the number of simultaneously active (open) ports.
How can I tell if I should be using the COM/IP redirector instead?
If your application uses AT commands to make modem connections but the endpoint is a networked device (not a modem), use COM/IP.
How can I tell if I should be using the Serial/IP Redirector instead?
If your application does not use AT commands, use Serial/IP.
