The paragraphs listed below refer to the selections you made for
the parameter “protocol” in the section ““Software Parameters” on
page 4-27.
Passthrough

If you selected the passthrough protocol in the section Software
Parameters, you can only use one socket for network
communication (rmpbind). The value entered in this section refers
to another section in the RS-232 menu, which contains the values
necessary to “bind a socket” (see “rmpbind” on page 4-38).
Scroll down to he RS-232 menu to find this section.
■
resend
interval
Any numerical number. Default value = “0”.
In “normal” situations, digital input lines are transmitted
whenever they change, so do not need a resend.
In special situations, for example where a remote unit is
switched off and back-on again, you may wish to re-
inform the device about the digital status of the
WaveLAN/EC-S device.
This parameter enables you to have the WaveLAN/EC-S
device retransmit digital input signals at regular intervals.
The numerical value corresponds with the number of
seconds between the various retransmissions.
■
socket
Specifies a network connection used to send RTS and
DTR input states to a remote WaveLAN/EC-S. The value
of this setting must be the name of a section that
describes the network connection to use. The connection
must use RMP protocol.
