TruePort I/O
API Over TruePort Only
If you have a custom application that talks to a serial port, you can use TruePort as a virtual serial 
port to communicate with the IOLAN over the network to access I/O data using the Perle API. You 
also have the option of enabling SSL as a security option to encrypt the data that is communicated 
between the IOLAN and the host machine (SSL/TLS must be configured in the Server settings and 
on the TruePort host). See 
for more information on the API.)
The host running TruePort must be in I/O API mode.
