The Generic Serial Driver is intended for end users to have the ability to control simple serial (RS232) devices.

It is for one direction control (no feedback).  If a two way driver is needed, Allonis can be retained to develop that as a full driver for you.

ASCII and HEX commands are supported.

The primary command is "SEND".

Each Device requires one Device license unit to enable it.

IP serial devices are commonly on telnet port 23.  You should consult the protocol documentation for specifics for your device.

Suffix is the string that is used to end the command. Optional.

Terminator is the string termination character. Optional but usually \r or \n.
