(4) Interval between frames (minimum allowable interval between frames)
The time interval after a node receives a token until it sends a frame is referred to as the "frame
interval."
The minimum interval that each node must wait for, before sending a frame, is referred to as the
"minimum allowable frame interval."
The FL-net shares this minimum allowable frame interval throughout the network.
Each node calculates the maximum value of the minimum frame interval each time a node joins or
leaves the participating node list.
