TP radio button as shown in Figure 13. The MS/TP port on the LIP- ME201 is enabled by default.The MS/TP
protocol settings are displayed in the settings box on the right-hand side as shown in Figure 13. Mandatory
settings are the
MS/TP node number
and the
MS/TP baud rate.
The MS/TP node number determines the
physical address of the device on the MS/TP channel and must be in the range from ‘0’ to the number configured
with the
MS/TP max master
configuration option. It must be unique within the MS/TP channel. The latter
parameter defines the maximal number of MS/TP master devices on the MS/TP channel. The Baud rate on
the MS/TP channel can be set to 9600, 19200, 38400, and 76800 Baud.
Important:
All masters on the MS/TP channel must have the same setting for MS/TP max master. Decreasing the
default value 127 of MS/TP max master may reduce latency on the MS/TP bus.
It is strongly recommended to leave the
MS/TP max info frames
and the
MS/TP max master
configuration
options at their default settings. In any case the
MS/TP max master
number must be high enough to include
the highest MS/TP node number of all masters on the channel. Slave devices may have a higher MS/TP node
number than
MS/TP max master
.
To operate with slow devices on the MS/TP network set the
Network Timing
option to slow. This increases a
number of timeouts, which is needed by some devices, but slows down network communication. If communication
problems occur in standard mode, try setting the slow mode.
The
Network Number
of the MS/TP port must be set to a non-zero value in order to operate the build-in
BACnet/IP-BACnet MS/TP router.
