Number of Devices
Default: 1
Options: 1 to 50
(LAN Port only)
Number of Devices allows you to reduce the number of addresses polled by
the concentrator from fifty to as few as one (use the number of the last
address you want polled). For example, if you know that the concentrator
will have only six devices on the LAN, you can speed up polling by setting
Number Of Devices to six. Thus, the concentrator will not waste the time set
for Turnaround Timeout by trying to poll nonexistent devices. The range is 1
to 50 devices.
Note:
You cannot assign an address that exceeds the value used for Number of
Devices.
