This timeout is specified as the number of PLC cycles that are allowed to elapse before the
user interface (UI) is enabled, and applies to all user interfaces on a PLC. When the timeout
has expired, a negative acknowledgement is sent in response to a frame sent to the user
interface.
Default value: 1 i.e. the user interface must be free again after one PLC cycle
Max. input value: 10 i.e. the user interface must be free again after ten PLC cycles
