Timers | The following timers are used to maintain data transmission: |
Sender Timer
Upon sending a start sequence, message text or query, this timer begins counting and stops counting upon receiving a valid answer control code. This timer is set to one (1) second. If a timeout occurs after the transmission of a start sequence, a start sequence will be resent up to 15 times. If a timeout occurs during the transmission of a message text or query, a query is sent up to 32 times.
Cabling Considerations
Receiver Timer
Upon transmission of a positive acknowledgment for a start sequence or a message text, this timer begins counting and stops counting upon receiving a message text or an end code. This timer is set to 35 seconds. If a timeout occurs, the sender loses send rights.
When the PMS is connected to the NEAX through a modem, the cables should just be “straight through” cables. There should be no crossing.
When the PMS is directly connected to the NEAX, use the following pin assignments:
