Web Port Gateway allows you to connect to Web Port to read and write tags according to a single protocol where information is exchanged via a TCP socket. For example, the interface is used in the Web Port driver for Citect, which allows the use of Web Port drivers directly from Citect.
The following settings can be made:
| Setting: | Description: |
| Enable | Enables Gateway function |
| Gateway Port | Indicates which port Web Port listens for connections on |
| Gateway cache time | Cache time for how often Web Port asks IO-devices for new values |
