Trailing Pad Characters
Pad characters are dummy characters sent at the end of a synchronous transmission.
A value of 1 is the only allowable entry. All others are ignored. The selection is 1
(Sync).
Host Response Timeout
This parameter should match the timeout parameter set in the host. The unit
verifies that a response is always sent to the host before this parameter expires.
The values for this parameter are in 10-millisecond increments. A value that is not
a factor of 10 rounds down to the nearest 10-millisecond factor.
Example: A value of 505 rounds down to 500 milliseconds.
The selections are 0 to 655350 ms, 3000.
Turnaround Delay
The turnaround delay is the time, in milliseconds, the unit waits between the
receipt of a message and the transmission of the response. If the connected device
seems to be missing messages because they are coming back too quickly, this
value should be increased.
The values for this parameter are in 10-millisecond increments. A value that is not
a factor of 10 rounds down to the nearest 10-millisecond factor.
Example: A value of 15 rounds down to 10 milliseconds.
The selections are 0 to 2550, 10.
Maximum Messages Queued
The value in this field indicates the total number of messages that can be
accumulated for a station before flow control is done to the sending device. The
selections are 1 to 32, 4.
RTS/CTS Control
This parameter controls the RTS (request to send) and CTS (clear to send)
signaling. The DTE /DCE setting of the port determines which lead is effected by
this parameter as shown in Table 7-3.
Table 7-3 RTS/CTS Control
Setting
DTE
DTE
O (on)
RTS is always on.
CTS is always on.
D (dynamic)
RTS is on during
data transmit.
CTS is on in
response to RTS.
F (floating)*
RTS is not used.
CTS is not used.
* When using the TDI, floating is required.
