Timeout Multiplier
The Timeout Multiplier determines the number of RPIs to wait for a packet
before declaring a connection timeout. This translates into the number of
messages that can be lost before a connection error is declared.
For example, a timeout multiplier of 1 indicates that messages must be received
during each RPI interval. A Timeout Multiplier of 2 indicates that 1 message
can be lost as long as at least 1 message is received in 2 times the RPI (2 x RPI).
