When adding an IP Serial Port, most of the time you will see the Status go to “Connected”
However, the Type “TCP Listener” does not actually connect to the device sending data. We are simply opening up on that port and waiting for any unencrypted data to show up.
Because of this the Status will remain “Connecting” indefinitely. This is the expected behavior.
This also means the Port Status of the Serial Profile will show “Connecting” as well.
