• Main Interface settings: This section covers the
more advanced variables not
usually
associated
with
bundle
management
and
which
apply
to
the
CobraNet™
device
globally
(see
Figure 4-4
). These are explained in detail in the CNDISCO
manual, but 2 are of particular importance to the ION series interfaces, ie…
o
Persistance:
The
STAGE8.8
is
a
very
simple
interface
product
and
does
not
have
a
preset
memory,
so
“persistence”
is
used
to
store
the
last
settings
in
case
of
power
down.
Please
note…
A
ll CobraNet™ settings need up to 1 minute to establish
persistence, as they are stored in the CobraNet™ flash. If the ION
power
is
cycled
before
the
settings
are
stored
to
flash,
then
the
settings
will
be
lost.
If the persistence tick box is off, then no settings will be saved.
o Mode Rate Control: The options are 1.33mS, 2.66mS or 5.33mS latency.
Note: there are significant trade‐offs if changes are made to the 5.33mS
default
settings
(see
PM25),
particularly
in
terms
of
the
number
of
switch
hops
that
can
be
used.
