Description

Retry Count:

0 to 10

This parameter specifies the number of attempts for

each response message. If a message fails, it will be

retried up to the count specified.

Request Timeout:

0 to 65535

This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds

to wait for a complete request message. The timer is

started after the DLE-STX character sequence is

received for the full-duplex protocol or the DLE-SOH

sequence for the half-duplex protocol. If the timer

expires, the current request message will be aborted.

Busy Timeout:

0 to 65535

This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds

to wait for the pass-through port to become

available.

ACK Timeout:

0 to 65535

This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds

to wait for a DLE-ACK character sequence after a

response is issued.

Command Delay:

0 to 65535

This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds

to wait between the initial issuance of a command.

This parameter can be used to delay all commands

sent to slaves to avoid "flooding" commands on the

network. This parameter does not affect retries of a

command as they will be issued when failure is

recognized.

Response Timeout:

0 to 65535

This parameter represents the message response

timeout period in 1-ms increments. This is the time

that a client will wait before re-transmitting a

command if no response is received from the

addressed slave. The value is set depending upon

the communication network used and the expected

response time of the slowest device on the network.

Retry Count:

0 to 10

This parameter specifies the number of times a

command will be retried if it fails.
