For the Assembly Instances 101 and 102, the Connection Parameters (input and output size
= 256 Byte each) are static and have to be set as follows:
In the "Connection" tab set the "Requested Packet Interval" (RPI) to 10 ms, which normally
should be the default setting. For XI/ON, the successfully tested RPI range is 5 and higher.

XI/ON gateway
Note
If the variable Assembly Instances 103 and 104 (see page 63) are used, the
Connection Parameters have to be set according to the actual station configuration
which means, the in- and output sizes have to match the sizes definitely required by
the station. This required in- and output size (2 to max. 496 Byte) can be read out
using Assembly Class (0×04), Instance 0×67, Attr. 0×04 and Assembly Class (0×04),
Instance 0×68, Attr. 0×04.
