Overview

The TCP Pool connection allows ACM to use multiple modems on TCP/IP terminal servers (or similar devices) through the configuration of a single port. ACM then can use any available modem in the pool to poll devices.  This reduces waiting time for access to modems because any available modem can be used for polling. To connect to a device that supports TCP Pool, the host computer must have Ethernet network connectivity.
