RepeatTimer

Element

Description

repeatTimerValue

The encoded value of the repeat timer.
The default value for this property is

determined based on the network

topology. It is recommended that you

do not change this from the default

value. If the default value is not

suitable for your application, it is

recommended that you use the Delay

property of each Channel object on the

network to ensure that each message

is sent at the correct interval.
However, this property does accept a

range of encoded values from 0 to 15.

The encoded repeat timer values are

as follows:

the property at any time to restore it

will be thrown.
