Description
Minimum Command
Delay
0 to 65535
Specifies the number of milliseconds to wait between the initial
issuances of a command. This parameter can be used to delay all
commands sent to servers to avoid "flooding" commands on the
network. This parameter does not affect retries of a command as
they will be issued when failure is recognized.
Response Timeout
0 to 65535
Specifies the time in milliseconds that a Client will wait before re-
transmitting a command if no response is received from the
addressed server. The value to use depends on the type of
communication network used, and the expected response time of
the slowest device on the network.
Retry Count
0 to 65535
Specifies the number of times a command will be retried if it fails.
