(RPI) (ms) A user-defined rate at which the module updates the information sent
to its owner-controller.
This interval defines the slowest rate at which a module sends its
data to the owner-controller. The time ranges from 2.0…750 ms and
is sent to the module with all other configuration parameters.

source node and destination node on the network. A Frame is sent to
a single destination.
Module Fault The fault box is empty if you are offline. The type of connection fault
appears in the text box if a fault occurs when the module is online.
