Comm Port Redirector 5.3 Using Redirector When the redirector is properly configured, starting your communications application will cause the redirector to open a connection to the server. As soon as the application accesses the virtual com port, a connection will be formed. While the connection is being established, a message window will indicate what is happening. If any problems occur, they will be displayed in these message windows. A similar message window will appear when the connection is terminated. Usually the connection terminates when the communications application is finished using it. Sometimes, the connection will fail while the application is trying to use it. This could happen because of a network failure or if a privileged user logs out the port being used. In this case, a message window will appear indicating that the connection was terminated, and the application will no longer be able to communicate with the modem.
