5 minutes = 300 seconds, 1 hour = 3600 seconds, 12 hours = 43,200 seconds, 18 hours = 64,800
seconds.
Path # Ack Wait
Default
:
13
Selections:
0, 5 – 65535 seconds
This item determines how long the panel will wait for an acknowledgement from the central station after a
heartbeat event (poll) or an actual event has been transmitted. This prompt is only applicable to SDI transmitted
events. Entries are made in one second increments.
0
The panel will not look for any acknowledgement from the central station.
5 – 65535
The panel will wait this amount of time to receive an acknowledgement from the central
station.

Even though RAM IV and the D5200 allow entries of 1 – 4, the 7000/9000 series panel will interpret
this as an entry of 5.
The value entered for Path # Ack Wait Tone must not be equal to the “Time Out” entry made in the
RAM IV Account (see RAM IV Operation Manual [P/N: 38849], v2.9 or higher). Instead, offset these
values by 2 or 3. For example, if your Path # Ack Wait time = 15, program your Time Out value as 17
in the RAM IV account.
Path # Retry Count
Default
:
5
Selections:
0 – 255
This item determines how many times the panel will re-send the heartbeat event before declaring a Path Failure
and generating a
COMM FAIL RG# SDI ###
(“
RG #
” = 1 – 4, “
SDI ###
” = 88 for Path 1, 89 for Path 2, 90 for
Path 3, 91 for Path 4) event.
0
COMM FAIL RG# SDI ###
events are not generated.
1 – 255
COMM FAIL RG# SDI ###
events are generated after the number of retries are reached
for a given SDI Path.

SDI RAM / Enhanced Communications Configuration
This section provides the necessary prompts needed for configuring the D9133TTL-E SDI-Ethernet Serial
Module, or D9133TTL-TR SDI-Token Ring Interface Module when using it for SDI RAM and/or SDI Enhanced
Communication applications.
Baud Rate
Default
:
9600
Selections:
300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14.4K
This item determines the communication baud rate for the D9133TTL-E or D9133TTL-TR. Since the SDI bus
communicates at 9600 baud, Radionics recommends that this prompt also be kept at 9600 baud. Pressing the
[SPACE] bar on the D5200 toggles through the available options.
Do not change this value to any other setting than 9600 baud.
