Appendix D. Advanced Setup Standby Modes

The Standard Setup menu selections should fill the majority of user needs. The following information is given in case you need to program a non-standard standby mode.

The Standard Setup menu selections do not correspond with Advanced Setup menu entries. For example: selecting a “3” in the Standard Setup menu selects (< 2 mA 1 sec Cycle) whereas entering a “3” in the Advanced Setup menu selects (< 4 mA 1/2 sec Cycle).

Standard Setup automatically configures the following three parameters appropriately. If you configure a standby mode from the Advanced Setup menu you must also manually configure these parameters according to the following guidelines:

(1)Time of Inactivity to Sleep

(2)Time of Inactivity to Long Header

(3)Long Header Time

The first two parameters should be set to about the same value. What this value is will depend upon the nature of the anticipated activity. The defaults are 5 seconds and 4.8 seconds, so if you go more than 4.8 seconds without activity, a long header is sent, and a corresponding 5 second receive delay will be experienced.
