message transmit

send all of the master station-initiated MSG instructions to the remote

 

 

 

 

stations before polling the next remote station in the poll list, choose

 

 

Between Station Polls

 

 

This method makes certain that master station-initiated messages are

 

 

sent in a timely and regular manner (after every remote station poll).

 

 

only send master station-initiated MSG instructions when the master’s

 

 

station number appears in the polling sequence, choose In Poll Sequence

 

 

With this method, sending master station-initiated messages are

 

 

dependent upon where and how often the master station appears in the

 

 

poll list. To achieve the same goal as the Between Station Polls method,

 

 

the master-station’s address would have to appear after every

 

 

remote-station’s address.

 

 

The controller sets a minor fault if you are using IN POLL SEQUENCE and

 

 

the master’s station is not in either the normal poll list or the priority

 

 

poll list.
