If you load an asyn record on this asyn port then you can use the CNCT (connect) field to force drvAsynIPPort to disconnect and reconnect the device. This should be equivalent to restarting the IOC. Have you tried this? If it works then you just need to figure out some logic to tell when the device is hung up and write to this field twice, first with Disconnect and then with Connect. Detecting when it has hung could be done with a longin record that increments each time you receive a message and then a calc record that processes periodically and checks to see if the longin record has stopped incrementing.

No chance for polling, communication on this port is read only. The data
is only send to the first client connected to the port. Closing the
connection and opening it again resp. rebooting the IOC or restarting
the client / netcat works fine until the error happens again. I observed
that the time until the error occurs depends on the number of TCP
packages send by the device which can be increased by configuring a
higher scan rate on the device. I think it's some kind of buffer or
counter overflow on the device which is reset with a new connection.
