4.2.8 Line Idle Time

This parameter specifies the minimum time, in milliseconds, that the communication line should remain idle between the end of a response from a BECO2200 device and the beginning of the next transmission from the BECO2200 DCA.

4.2.9 Retries Before Failure

This parameter specifies the number of automatic retries that can be conducted by the BECO2200 DCA on a single transaction (scan/response). For every given transaction, the scan can be retried this number of times in the event of a data link error. If no response is received that passes the data link error check within the number of retries configured, the transaction is considered failed.

4.2.10Failures Before Off-line

This parameter specifies the number of consecutive transactions that must fail before a BECO2200 device is considered off-line.

4.2.11Number of Devices on Port

This parameter specifies the number of devices to communicate on this port. This is configured as a range of records in the A164PORT table. For example, if the first A164PORT record has four devices and the second A164PORT record has three devices, the first four devices configured in the A164PORT table will communicate on the first port, and the next three devices configured in the A164UNIT table will communicate on the second port.
