Because data throughput has priority over video throughput, video
bandwidth may be restricted to support data requirements.
Pass-Thru Mode is a proprietary featurethat is only supported when
both endpoints are either ViewStation FX or VS4000 stations. The
RS-232 port only supports data Pass-Thru in H.320 mode (ISDN or
V.35). Data Pass-Thru in an H.323 (IP) video call or multi-point call
is not supported, as alternative file transfer methods such as ftp or
Telnet are widely available.
Note When in Pass-Thru Mode, both local and remote stations
need to be set to the same data rate.
Pass-Thru Mode to Control Mode—If the near site is set to
Pass-Thru Mode, but the far site is set to Control Mode, then the
device connected to the near site RS-232 port can be used to control
the far site ViewStation FX or VS4000, using the far site’s Command
Line Interface.
