6.3 DF1 Master Configuration
The following parameters are required only if the port is to be configured as a
Master.
6.3.1 ENQ Delay
ENQ Delay : 0 #0-65535 milliseconds before DLE-ENQ sent
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to wait after a DLE-ACK is
received from a slave using half-duplex mode before the DLE-ENQ request is
made for data. Enter a value in the range of 0 to 65535 milliseconds.
6.3.2 Minimum Command Delay
This parameter specifies the number of milliseconds to wait between issuing
each command. This delay value is not applied to retries.
6.3.3 Error Delay Count
Error Delay Count : 100 #0-65535 Command cycle count if error
This parameter specifies the number of polls to be skipped on the slave before
trying to re-establish communications. After the slave fails to respond, the master
will skip commands to be sent to the slave the number of times entered in this
parameter. Enter a value in the range of 0 to 65535.
6.3.4 Command Error Pointer
Command Error Pointer : 3000 #Cmd Error list data (-1=ignore)
This parameter sets the address in the internal database where the command
error data will be placed. If the value is set to -1, the data will not be transferred
to the database. Enter a value from 0 to 4999.
6.3.5 Slave List Pointer
Slave List Pointer : 3100 #Slave status list data (-1=ignore)
This parameter specifies the starting address in the virtual database where the
256 slave status values will be written. If the parameter is set to -1, the slave data
will not be placed in the database. Enter a value in the range of -1 to 4743.
