Failure Flag Count

If this value is greater than zero the protocol communication will be interrupted
once a backplane failure is detected, or communication with the processor fails.
A value of zero will disable this feature.

Pass-Through Mode

0, 1, 2 or 3

This parameter specifies the pass-through mode for write messages received by
the MNET and MBAP server ports.
 If the parameter is set to 0

, all write messages will be placed in the module’s

virtual database.

 If a value of 1 is entered, write messages received will be sent to the

processor as unformatted messages.

 If a value of 2 is entered, write messages received will be sent to the

processor as formatted messages.

 If a value of 3 is entered, write messages received will be sent to the

processor with the bytes swapped in a formatted message.

Note: To use pass-through mode, your MVI56E-MNETC module needs to have firmware version
3.01 or higher, and your MVI56E-MNETC Add-On Instruction needs to be version 1.8 or higher.

Earlier versions do not support pass-through mode.

Duplex/Speed Code

0, 1, 2, 3 or 4

This parameter allows you to cause the module to use a specific duplex and
speed setting.
 Value = 1: Half duplex, 10 MB speed
 Value = 2: Full duplex, 10 MB speed
 Value = 3: Half duplex, 100 MB speed
 Value = 4: Full duplex, 100 MB speed
 Value = 0: Auto-negotiate
Auto-negotiate is the default value for backward compatibility. This feature is not
implemented in older software revisions.
