Local simulation RB
List box: Off, On
Default = Off
The RP570 protocol Master very often transmits the RB packets (hold packets) solely to check
whether slaves are connected. In order to minimize the Radio channel load, the RipEX can be
configured to respond to these packets locally and not to transmit them to the slaves over the Radio
channel.
If
On
, the RipEX responds to RB packets received from the RP 570 master locally over the COM
interface. However from time to time (RB period) the RB packets are transferred over the network
in order to check whether the respective slave is still on. When the RB response from the slave to
this RB packet is not received over the Radio channel within the set RB timeout, i.e. the respective
slave is out of order, the central RipEX stops local answering to RB packets from the master for the
respective slave.
•
RB Net period [s]
Default = 10
The RipEX responds to the RB packets locally and in the set RB period the RB packets are trans-
ferred over the network.
•
RB Net timeout [s]
Default = 10 (maximum=8190)
Whenever an RB packet is sent over the network, the set RB Net timeout starts. When the RB re-
sponse from the remote unit (slave) is not received within the timeout, i.e. the respective slave is
out of order, the central RipEX stops the local answering to RB packets from the master for the re-
spective slave.
•
Local simulation RB
List box: Off, On
Default = Off
The RP570 Slave expects to receive RB packets from the Master. When the Local simulation RB
on the Master is On, the RB packets are transferred over the Radio channel only in the RB Net
period (see Master settings). The Local simulation RB has to be set the same (On or Off) on all
sites in the network, i.e. on the master as well as all slaves.
If
On
, the RipEX generates RB packets locally and transmits them over the COM interface in the
RB Request period and expects the RB response for each RB packet from the RP570 Slave within
the RB Response timeout. When the RipEX does not receive the response(s) from the RP570 slave,
the RipEX does not respond to the RB packet from the Master which it receives over the Radio
channel.
