|
| The Node name is used |
|
| |
|
| differently in a Server Node |
|
| |
|
| Provide name for Node. The |
|
| |
|
| driver uses the Node name to |
|
| |
| Node_Name | establish a connection with the | Up to 32 alphanumeric | ||
| Server if the Node_ID is non- | characters | |||
|
| ||||
|
| zero. |
|

|
| See Section 6.3 for additional |

| The parameter is used to |
|
| |
| Node_ID | control how the driver logs onto | 0,1 |

|
| In a number of FieldServer |
|
| |
|
| configurations it is common to |
|
| |
|
| omit the port when defining a |
|
| |
|
| Server Node this cannot be |
|
| |
| Server_Hold_Timeout* | done with the SNP protocol | |||
|
| unless the FieldServer is to be |
|
| |
|
| used to emulate only one Node |
|
| |
|
| and is not polling any other |
|
| |
|
| SNP devices. |
